Mathias Stinnes used a white-over-red pennant, described by Karl Scherf as possibly the first Rhine house flag. Published pennants vary greatly in length. Michels also shows a rectangular white-over-red flag in proportions about 14:6 rather than his usual 14:9; a photograph confirms that rectangular form. The Ernst Bassermann photograph supplies the S1261 funnel.
