Many designs were used by the Crimean Russian nationalist in
the years 1989-1992. One of the most used (together with Russian
colors in several arrangements) was the white flag with blue map
that was the Rejected Proposal that was
rejected by parliament in 25 February 1992. The most wanted
proposal (most wanted by the Parliament, I believe) was a
flag horizontal divided in two parts: below was white and above
with the seven rainbow colors (R-O-Y-V-light B- dark B-P).On 6
May 1992, the Parliament declared independence but no official
flag was adopted at the date. On 5 June 1992 five
proposals were submitted to the Parliament:
Proposal No. 1 - Same flag as the current one
but with lower narrow stripe in blue instead of red.
Proposal No. 2 - Flag described before (rainbow
and white).
Proposal No. 3 - White over light Blue.
Proposal No. 4 - Y-V-B horizontal with a red
vertical stripe (same size as the vertical ones) at the hoist.
Proposal No. 5 - The current design with the
arms in center (not the variant of the Jefesov project, adopted
25 February 1992 but with new arms).
This last flag, proposed by V. Trusov and A. Mal'gin was the
prefered one. The arms from G. Jefetov and V. Jagunov was
recommended. Supreme Soviet charged to 4 artists and G.
Golubjatnikov made the final design of the state symbols. Final
designs were submitted in the second session of the Supreme Soviet
at the first day of its sessions (24-9-92) and was adopted with
a important variation: the arms adopted (a gules varegian-type
shield with griffin of argent between two columns and with a conch
with a blue pearl in the hand) isn't shown on the flag. Above
arms has a ribbon with the inscription: Prosperity within unity.
I believe that source is a translation from Czech magazine
"Vexilologie" [vex].

The white flag with blue map of Crimea must have two blue
laurel branches.
