Rear-Admiral's Flag

Tony Lovell has Phillimore's Rear-Admiral's flag. It is silk, mildly discoloured, and 13 feet in length. Sadly, it is also torn, as it was shipped to him with a framed track chart Phillimore had drawn of the Battle of the Falklands, and the glass had shattered in shipment. Worse yet, the track chart was badly mildewed and worthless.
