Afrikanska’s flag is quartered blue and yellow, with a blue-edged white circle containing a blue S. The A556 funnel dates from the end of the nineteenth century and was changed after the First World War. Brown attributes A555 to Sandström, Stranne & Co. in 1929 and Gustaf E. Sandström in 1934. A554 is described as buff, but Rosanoski assumes yellow because it is not differentiated from the flag colours. Loughran describes the flag design as a funnel band and identifies the initial with manager Gustaf E. Sandström.
A554 buff/yellow rendering qualification retained.
