Hi
I have this part, which I can’t seem to locate, it isn’t a sticker, it is printed
on both sides.
Is it Lego?
Thanks again
Regards
Margaret

If it is lego there should be a (very small) lego logo on top of one of the clips.

Not true for this part. There are plenty of original flags of this type around
that predate the tiny print logo.

You have a source for this? Not saying it's not true but now I'm curious


I checked my set 6017 from 1987, one year after the initial release of these
flags and they already have the logo.
And as these flags in black only appeared from 1996 onward, it's safe to
assume those should have the logo.

It could also be a custom print on a genuine Lego part of course.

My source was just checking my collection. I have plenty of this flag in eleven
colours, all without micro printing. Most of these I bought in 2016 and 2017
from at least 10 different, reputable Bricklink sellers. Most of the ones I have
are the thin clip variety. The black ones I have definitely come from multiple
copies of
