This flag has a blue field with a yellow vertical stripe along the hoist ans
a yellow inverted chevron (V-shaped stripe) covering most of the fly area of the
flag. The width of the vertical stripe and each arm of the "V" is
1/6th of the flag's length. The cypher "IV" and the letters "I"and
"V" represent the fact that it is the _Fourth_ Congress of _I_nternational
_V_exillology. The colour of the flag, blue and yellow, represent the City of
Turin, the flag of the F.I.A.V., and the host -- the Academy of San Marciano.
Attached to the flag pole immediately above the flag are two blue cravats
fringed in gold, carrying on one the inscription "4º Congresso
Internazionale di Vessillologia" ("4th. International Congress of
Vexillology"), and on the other, "Torino 24-27 guigno 1971")
("Turin 24-27 June 1971"). This flag was designed by Aldo Zigioto.

"Of the ten papers presented at the Congress,
three have been published in the Flag Bulletin and seven have not been published
anywhere. FI could not find a copy of the following four unpublished papers: (1)
H. Michael Madaus, "The Evolution of the Color Guard in the US Army"; (2) C.
Pama, "Republic Flags in South Africa in the Nineteenth and Early Twentieth
Centuries"; (3) Georges Pasch, "Les fonctions du drapeaux et le développement de
la conscience socio-politique”; and (4) J.H. Rombach & Klaes Sierksma, "Les
drapeaux officiels aux Pays-Bas." If anyone has a copy of one of these papers,
please contact FI. The remaining three unpublished papers found by FI will be
published on FI's website along with a list of the papers published in the Flag
Bulletin and the names of the four papers that could not be found. This will
conclude the publication of the ICV 5 proceedings." (Info-FIAV 24/2007, p. 8).
