Low's First black flag


Goldwolf

Here is yet another Famous Jolly Roger, that has never bin printed (well sort of, but not quite)<br /><br />It's the first black flag of Edward (Ned) Low(e)<br /><br />He had this on before his famous Red Skelaton flag.<br /><br />This flag was discribed in Johnson's General History as followed: " viz, a white skeleton in the middle of it, with a dart in one hand striking a bleeding heart and in the other an hour glass"<br /><br />Again, I've putten the Dart and heart in the left hand, because this was mentioned first.<br /><br />I know... It looks A LOT like the existing print of Edward Teach's (Blackbeards) flag.<br /><br />This becuse it is said that Low borrowed Blackbeard's design, for his own flag. (even though there is no evidence of Edward Teach ever having his now a days famous horned skeleton flag)<br /><br />Witch is why I've construckted this flag out of both the existing Blackbeard print and Low's existing print.
