In NFK 21/1995, Jan Oskar Engene wrote another article on municipal flags in Norway: "Noen norske byflagg" (A few Norwegian city flags), pp. 23-31. There seems to be no info on the preferred ratio of the Mandal flag, so I put it in 8:11. (Please, don't laugh too much at my salmon drawing :)

BTW, among several "world" languages, the Mandal web site provides info in Bosnian as well showing the B&H flag, quite unexpected I must say. On the other hand, a warm welcome to Mandal is somewhat cooled down with warning in several languages that 'All visitors to Mandal must report first to the "Tjenestetorvet".' I don't feel like much welcome if I first have to report to some local sheriff to leave my guns there. Possibly the wording is a bit rough in their Bosnian translation.
