| Posted: | | | | They do them like that on the sides of buses, etc., too. Normally, the blue field must be on the top left when the flag is displayed flat, as on a wall, whether horizontally or vertically, as shown in the New York Stock Exchange photo in the first post. | | | Last edited: by CalebAndCo |
