Interesting link, but the Great Northern War (1700-1721) started a century before Napoleon's rise to power. link Jim |

If you want to read more about Swedish flags I recommend Between the Imperial Eagles (2000) but, off head, these are the very same flags that were used during napoleonic times. At least they look like the part! |

Here are the flags used by units involved in 1808 Russo-Swedish War (well, at least the majority of them. The ones that were in the battles we recreated). link |

What a great service to offer these flags for home printing. Tangos Commercial products do look very similar and are of course superb.
I do like the idea of printing the Napoleonic Era flags with a slight droop already built into the pattern. Everyone does such as a square or rectangle…..and leaves the purchaser to bend to realistic shape.

Good tips on mounting flags, too. I suggest sealing (spray or brush-on sealer) the printed flags on both sides before mounting on pole, and using foil liner. |

Foil…….that is clever! Very clever indeed. Will take a fold the way paper refuses to……
Obviously I was just about to think of that myself…in the next two decades maybe?
