Naval ensigns, royal standards and the flags of pilots, diplomats and merchant ships are set out with official precision in these prints from the Admiralty's 1916 Drawings of the flags in use at the present time, by various nations, printed by Eyre and Spottiswoode under HMSO authority during the First World War. Uruguay, Venezuela, Sweden, Siam and the United States are among the nations shown, each with its national devices and the flags of particular offices. Some sheets separate ranks or branches of service, while others show the arms or badges built into a flag's design.
