  Bahía Magdalena registration flags

  Bahía Magdalena (1858-1888 [?])

  Bahía Magdalena, Baja California Sur (Departamento del Pacífico) - Per bend sisnister divided white-blue, a blue disc in the white triangle.

  The last issue of Franciae Vexilla (#24/70, December 2001) includes a paper by Olivier Coore, entitled "Les pavillons de matricule mexicains" ("Mexican registration ensigns").

  In the 1889 edition of "Album des Pavillon"s, the registration ensigns are no longer shown, and it is therefore probable they were suppressed short before 1889. The design of the eagle on the Mexican plate mentioned above seems to indicate it dates from Porfirio Diaz presidency (1876-1911).

  Bahía Magdalena (ca. 1923-?)

  This flag is shown in:

  Código Nacional de Señales para uso de las estaciones semafóricas, buques de guerra y mercantes nacionales
  By Commander Permanent of the National Navy Guillermo León Tagle
  Approved by the Secretaría de Guerra y Marina
  Talleres Gráficos de la Nación
  México, 1923.

  In this value book are shown the registration flags (Banderas de matrícula) of 28 Mexican ports plus four unidentified flown around 1923. The flags keep the siplified design as those used between 1851-1888, but by any reason the flags changed. According the author, the Mexican Navy Administration is divided also into two Departamentos (Departments): Departamento del Golfo and Departamento del Pacífico.

  Bahía Magdalena, was part of the Departamento del Pacífico.
