The earlier Josef Jaegers flag, listed at Aschaffenburg in Flaggen auf dem Rhein, has two Js, the left higher than the right. The source places the change from JJ to J with the Stinnes acquisition in 1971. Rosanoski argues that the red and green diamond borders should be separated by white, as on the current flag; their contact in part of the printed source is probably an artefact. He suggests deep sky-blue from photographs.

The blue house flag has three white waves lowered beneath a white lozenge with a stylised blue J. Around the lozenge are red, white and green lines from the inside out, with further white edging against the blue field. Jan Mertens ventures that the colours might represent North Rhine-Westphalia, without confirmation. Rosanoski notes that the FOTW waves end on an upward curve whereas the website shows them ending downwards. J164 follows the photographic flag on Eiltank 3 and a matching funnel on Eiltank 17, whose base is not visible.

Eiltank 1 has distinctly shortened white bands. The photograph looks from port at a funnel mounted on the starboard side, so the number of bands on the other side may differ.

Eiltank 124 shows straight white batons with descending lengths. Rosanoski suggests that the shorter funnel may explain their straightening.

J167 is documented on Adria on 18 February 2008.

J168 is documented on Eiltank 21.
