Intriguingly, the flag as shown at Wikipedia
has a considerably darker red stripe than the Coat of Arms, though as usual, that
should possibly be taken with a pinch of salt. Though red and white are
common colours on Polish flags (and eastern European flags in general)
I can't help noting the similarity with the proposed flag of Belarus.
James Dignan, 15 Apr 2008
Coat-of-Arms of the city of Wyszków is based on the one of the Plock
Bisphoric, which granted it the municipal rights in 1502, thus predating
the second Belorussian national flag by over 400 years (first one was plain
white).
The red bands of the Arms and the flag should be of the same, uniform
color, matching the red of the Polish national flag.
