Background

In "Fahnen, Flags, Drapeaux" (Proceedings of the 15th International Congress of Vexillology, Zurich, 23-27 August 1993), edited by Emil Dreyer and Harald Müller, and published as a limited edition of 150 numbered copies by the Swiss Society of Vexillology in 1999 ([dre99]?), there is a paper entitled "A new country, old symbols; flags and arms of the Czech Republik" by Ales Brozek (pp. 85-89).
There is a black and white reproduction of the cover of the "Prager Wochenblatt" ["Independent weekly Czechoslovak newspaper in German language"] # 41, 2-9 November 1992, including a paper on the new Czech flag, by Ales Brozek.
Two proposals are illustrated:

A 1:2 former Czechoslovak and current Czech flag, but with the blue triangle extending over the 2/3 of the flag width, with another triangle superimposed, extending over the 1/2 of the flag width. This triangle is a chequey white and red to represent Moravia.
