The Hall of Flags
Twenty Ensigns of the Nations · Uncaptioned
Pocket Library Series · No. 11 · The Reader is Trusted to Know Them

The engraver was paid by the flag and not by the name, and so no names are given. Each figure turns over. On the back of every one the engraver has left a remark in the pen-and-dot hand of the Freemasons; the key to that hand is published separately, and the reader who has not yet got it may look and wonder.

Wait — read this first

These are not clues. You already have every clue you need. They are in the room, on the paintings, and in the printed things.

This is only for when a clue isn't making sense and you would rather move on than stay stuck.

The Hall of Flags Every figure says something. Only the right figures say something useful.
