About the flag

In Petersen/Kannik’s Flag Book [kan56], of 1956, (a quite reliable source) the flag is in 1:2. So the step towards these proportions must have been earlier than the 1967 law about the emblem.

The size changed from 333:500 to 1:2 definitely earlier than 1967, as in the book [kan5X], published in 1959, the size is given as 1:2. I think 1954 would be closer.
