I spotted the flag of the ICC (International Chamber of Commerce) here: http://www.pmphoto.to/worlds_fair/wf_tour/hall_of_nations/images/world_trade_center-268.jpg (source: http://www.pmphoto.to/worlds_fair/wf_tour/hall_of_nations/world_trade_center.htm).
The page cites: "Zone 1 - Hall of Nations - World Trade Center
Originally
the space was reserved for China. When China decided not to exhibit, the area
was offered to the International Chamber of Commerce and seven other
organizations. The building was the headquarters for visiting trade groups and
students with emphasis on "world peace through world trade. The World Trade
Center building was dedicated by our Assistant Secretary of State Francis B.
Sayre on May 21, 1939"
The flag of the ICC is seen in the above mentioned
picture waving outside the building, and it is the three letters on their logo
(http://www.iccwbo.org/images/IncotermsHomaPageBanner.png,
seen on the left) on a white horizontal background.
The International
Chamber of Commerce (ICC) is the largest, most representative business
organization in the world. Its hundreds of thousands of member companies in over
130 countries have interests spanning every sector of private enterprise and has
permanent observer status with the United Nations. The UN, the World Trade
Organization, and many other intergovernmental bodies, both international
and regional, are kept in touch with the views of international business through
ICC. It was established in 1919 to serve world business by promoting trade and
investment, open markets for goods and services, and the free flow of capital.
The organization's international secretariat was established in Paris and the
ICC's International Court of Arbitration was created in 1923. It is also known
as the World Business Organization (WBO).
