Jolly roger flagJolly roger flag Ref: NA6218
Please Note, Only the Jolly roger is included in this sale )Where did the name "Jolly Roger" originate?. Well.... the "original" skull-and-crossed-bones was credited to a French buccaneer, Bartholomew Roberts, in the mid 1600s. Various other emblems - crossed-cutlasses for example - were used by later pirates. Bartholomew Roberts was nicknamed "Le Jolie Rogue", and in English this was used to refer to the flag and not the man. Another origin may have been that the Jolly Roger was a corruption of Jolie Rougere, a red pennant flown by French buccaneers to show no quarter would be taken. In many parts of the Caribbean, the "Jolly Roger" was the equivalent of a happy face: it meant the pirate ship was willing to take prisoners. The appearance of a red flag, however signified no prisoners, and the pirates would slaughter crew and passengers. Our flags are made from lightweight 100% polyester and printed right through. The edge is protected by a stiff white braid, with two brass eyelets for halyard attachments. These are not heavy-duty flags and this is reflected in the price. LARGE FLAG - measures 60x35". MEDIUM FLAG - 39x22". SMALL FLAG - 18X9".
