International Code of Signals Flag Chart - Historical Maritime Communication Guide #1370692 (License: Personal Use)

This historical illustration displays the International Code of Signals (ICS) flags from A to W, including the answering pendant and code signal pennant, rendered in vivid hand-colored print. Each flag is uniquely designed with specific colors, shapes, and symbols-such as solid red (B), blue with white circle (D), yellow-blue diagonal (G), and checkered blue-white (N)-to convey standardized messages at sea. The chart reflects pre-digital naval communication practices widely adopted by merchant and naval vessels globally.

Used on maritime history, navigation, or nautical education websites; ideal for articles on signal flags, naval tradition, or vintage sailing resources. Matches user intent seeking visual reference, educational material, or historical documentation of sea communication systems.
