National Navy albums

Several maritime countries were issuing flag books at the end of 19th and during 20th century officially or semi-officially for their navies and merchant marines. The British BR 20 series and the French Album comes to mind immediately, the German Flaggenbuch as well.
Željko Heimer, 07 Aug 2010

There were the important US Navy flag book series too, the Italian Navy flag book series, the Russian and later Soviet flag book series and a few other countries, which issued single Navy flag books, which did not develop into series (Kingdom of Naples, Imperial Austria, Ottoman Turkey, Japan before WWII).
