Description

Flaggenbuch 1939 reports the standard of the Sultan, a white flag with golden crescent and star —as in the national flag— topped with a crown, the whole inside a dark grey (?) wreath.

The Cigarette ALBUM "Die Welt in Bildern Album 7 : Flaggen der Welt, aussereurpäische Staaten" published by the Bulgaria Cigarette Manufactory, some time between 1928 and 1932 shows the Royal Standard of the Sultan of Kelantan. It is a plain white flag of unknown ratio, in the middle there is a golden ensemble, consisting of a crescent, topped by a 5-point-star, all of it surmounted by a royal crown. In the album on top of the crown there is a cross, which is probably wrong, being a symbol of Christians. The golden ensemble is surrounded by a wreath.

In "Flaggenbuch 1939(Reprint)" on page 117 there is obviously depicted the same flag. On top of the crown there is another smaller crescent, topped by 4-point- star that might be a symbol of a diamond. I think this one is the right version.

This photo shows an actual flag (but in blue and white only). The two differences are the style of crown and over all color. I have no idea if there has been a change in the Sultan's flag over the years or if Herman's illustration is perhaps wrong.
