The flag is in over all excellent condition with a few slight age stains and a few moth holes (please see photographs). Hallag Hooge is a very small island of the north cost of Germany in the district of Schleswig Holstein and it is not far from the cost of Denmark.

A rare and unique historical flag and very unusual to find one for an Island, it is certainly the only one i have owned or seen for sale. [Condition: Exc++]
