Can anyone confirm, or deny, that Wurttemberg Flags did not have finials please?
Thanks |

Per the Opsrey MAA 77,"Flags of the Napoleonic Wars (1): France & Her Allies", T. Wise & G. Rosignoli, p. 23, Yes. "These flags were carried on a wooden stave, the top half of which was painted black, with a brass ferrule, and a brass finial of the pierced design illustrated. Overall length of the stave, including finial, was 3.08 metres . . ." Hope that helps. |

Phil ………write your post then give yourself a little room. Copy the link itself and then paste it below your post. It should work or I have not had enough coffee yet.

Hi Phil, If you right-click on the image you should get a message that says something like: "Open image in new window". If you left-click on this you will get the image on its own. You then just need to copy the image address – which will probably end in .jpg – and paste it into your message. The image iteself will then appear:
