Rudi Keller's flag of "Schwaben"

Jan Oskar Engene has provided recently a BIB entry on the origin of Baden-Württemberg symbols (Baden-württembergische Befindlichkeiten), and also pointed our attention to the archive material available at the website of the Staatsarchiv. There are many proposals for the coat-of-arms for the new state Baden-Württemberg from about 1952, and also several flag proposals. I took the drawings of the flag proposals and cleaned them up a bit. The flag proposals are IMHO much better than the simple and boring bicolour that had been actually adopted.

Proposal by Rudi Keller, Freiburg, 1952, for a coat-of-arms and flag of "Schwaben" (Suebia). The flag would have been a banner-of-arms, showing: Or, three lions passant Sable.

Schnibbe's "Schwaben" flag

Proposal by Klaus Schnibbe, Stuttgart, 1948-53 for a coat-of-arms and a flag of of "Schwaben" (Suebia). The flag would have been a banner-of-arms, showing: Or, three lions passant Sable, the right fore-paw Gules. The red fore-paw alludes to the decapitation of Konradin, the Staufer.
