A very clear photo of the Town flag at www.flickr.com/photos/mgpix/957718874/sizes/o/. The flag is white with the town seal in the center- with an outer ring of gold w blue lettering, and an inner image of white and blue. Above the seal is a gold ribbon with blue lettering EAST HAMPTON TOWN and below the seal another such ribbon with the phrase SETTLED 1648.
There is a black and white image of the seal at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Eh-seal.jpg.

On letterhead, the Town uses a black and white and on Town buildings a black and gold colour scheme is employed. The Town flag uses a blue instead of black with gold. The seal is enclosed in a gold circle with the following legends in black: "EAST HAMPTON TOWN, N.Y. (on the top half). The bottom half reads, left to right: SAG HARBOR . WAINSCOTT . EAST HAMPTON . SPRINGS . AMAGANSETT. MONTAUK. This placement reflects the geographic locations of the villages and Town as one
traverses down-island from west to east. The inner circle is black or blue (Gardiner's Bay, Georgica Pond, Lake Montauk, Block Island Sound and the Atlantic Ocean). Facing Southwest to Northeast is the south fork of Long Island, including Gardiner's Island (coloured gold). In black or blue print appear the names and boundaries of the six villages and hamlets. Above Gardiner's Island are two gold circles (black or blue in between). This signifies a compass bearing north. The compass may represent either or all of the following: the association of John Gardiner, Lord of the Manor of Gardiner's Island, with Captain William Kidd (the pirate), Sag Harbor's whaling industry, or today's commercial fishing fleet based on Montauk. Below the peninsula appear a sketch of Hook Mill (in East Hampton) and the Montauk Lighthouse with "Settled 1648"
under the lighthouse. These are outlined in both gold on black or blue.
