Description of the flag

Blue flag with the coat of arms (i.e. emblem from the obverse of the national flag) in the middle surrounded with four yellow five-pointed stars in corners. This presidential flag is matching with the new artistical redention of the coat of arms, in use since early 1990.
Željko Heimer, 25 Oct 2002

According to official website of the paraguayan presidency, the coat of arms shows a yellow star on blue disc; the 3 blue-white-red thin circles should reportedly be replaced by a thick red circle.
Armand du Payrat, 01 Jun 1999

Album’s 1995 recapitulative issue [pie95] shows this flag without the name of the state inscribed in the red ring. This is I guess an error rather than the variation used in early 1990’s.

Pre-1990 flag

Old pres. flag 1:2
by Željko Heimer, 27 Oct 2002

The previous presidential flag (before 1990) included the central emblem that was not exactly the same as the obverse emblem in the matching national flag.
Željko Heimer, 25 Oct 2002

Smith’s 1975 [smi75b] and subsequent books (1980, 1982 that I know of) shows a presidential flag of the time. (Ratio is given as ≅1:2 and indication that it is a reconstruction based on written sources only.) The flag is blue with a variation of the coat of arms — as on obverse on the national flag minus name of the state, and with four yellow five-pointed stars in corners.

New flag in 2013?

My question is if anyone knows if the presidential flag has also officially adopted the current symbols.

Flag as of 1939

To my understanding the design of the emblem was rather freely interpreted in these years, so both versions could have been equally used.

Actually, the original page of [neu39] shows the emblem with the blue and golden background within the wreath.

The subsequent correction page 137 (issued in second part of [neu92]) shows only the star within the wreath — no background and no “shadow-lines” below the star. This being the only difference I noticed, and apparently only reason for the update of this page. If Neubecker considered the change important enough to issue the correction sheet, he must have had good reasons for it.

The Paraguayan Presidential Sash is the tricolor blue/white/red with the Coat of Arms in white/yellow outline.
Esteban Rivera, 16 Aug 2008

A similar gold seal is charged on a variant national flag that is used at official functions.
