Description: green white red with Savoy arms.
Željko Heimer, 17 September 1996
The Italian tricolour was and is in the 2:3 ratio. The example
in CISV web page <www.cisv.it>
showing tricolour with the Shield of the House in square format
is a military colour, which was almost square in shape for horse
mounted troops.
Pier Paolo Lugli, 1 March 2004
As the photo and video clip in this news item show, when the body of King
Vittorio Emmanuele III (King of Italy from 1900 until his abdication in 1946)
were returned to Italy from Egypt and reinterred there, the Italian national
flag of the Savoyard era was used as a casket pall instead of the former royal
standard.

I recently landed on labarum-style flag of the Italian Red Cross,
on post card at this
website.
Apparently introduced 17 Oct. 1920.

The postcard itself being from 1929 however, so I am
wondering, if the vexillum-style flag shown on the postcard was
really introduced in 1920. Perhaps it was only a simpler
"gonfalone" introduced in 1920, and either changed
later on or just manufactured in a more "elaborate"
way.
