Anyone got a good online source of print-quality images of flags for the Mexican Revolution? In particular I'm looking for Zapatistas, Villistas, and if possible the Mexican Liberal Party (PLM-I've seen a black and white photo of one of theirs flying in Tijuana, "tierra y libertad" on red) |

I have not seen a suitable site.
However I intend to make some up, so that players can download them and print them on a printer.
They might not be excellent but they will be free.
Probably in October.
They will be downloadable from the PP website. martin |

I've looked around. I haven't found any commercially produced sets. You can find some floating around on history sites. My research makes me think that the Mexican Revolution was not as "flaggie" as the RCW. |

Thanks guys! I appreciate the input. Martin, I look forward to your flags next month. In the meantime i may try to make a couple of my own. |

Have you looked at Warflag? |

Just checked it. They don't seem to have much past the 19th century. Nothing from the Mexican Revolution |

Could you possibly use some of their Mexican flags as a template for the ones you need? Just a thought. |

I found some other websites about the history of the Mexican flag that I was able to use. Also made some rebel flags based on descriptions I found, plus old photos. They're pretty rough, about to pick it up from the printer. If they came out ok, I'll share the sheets |

Came out pretty good from the printer. I condensed it to 1 sheet, jpeg. Print on 8.5 x11. This was a quick job, I can't claim much historical accuracy on a few of them, so don't judge too harshly. link |

Martin, feel free to use or improve upon any of that, I can send you the files, or links to some of the sources if you'd like. |

Thank you Makhno.
I will take you up on the offer.
