canadian national item detail
Pattern description: This pattern features the line's house flag in red and blue on a yellow flag pole. The maple leaf at the center of the pennant is red and green. The rim decoration consists of a cobalt blue band bordered with yellow lines.
Pattern notes: Many items in the Prince George pattern feature parallel yellow lines of varied widths which transect the blue band at intervals. We assume these do not appear on this item due to its small size and circular shape (which would require that the lines "radiate" as opposed to being parallel to each other and at a consistent 90º angle to the band) so we have not classified this as being a different pattern.
