J.H. Grell

There is no proper company flag displayed, but flags of companies being affiliated to J.H. Grell. So Grell is either the owner or at least agent in Hamburg or elsewhere affiliated with the companies listed below.

Straßburg-Rheinische Gesellschaft

It is a white flag with a red stripe at top- and bottom-edge. In the white stripe is something, which could be the greater arms of the city of Straßburg. Two reguardant silver (= white) lions, at least I believe they are lions are supporting a silver (=white) shield divided by a red bend. The whole is placed either upon a scroll or a basement.

H.C. Grell

The red flag has a white bordure. In the centre is a white 5-point star. I don't know, whether this company has to do something with J.H.Grell.
