Dear Richard, You refer to a Portuguese communal flag...

You might look at the Portuguese National Flag which has an armillary sphere as its background. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Portugal It isn't a very well drawn armillary sphere but it is convincing enough. I am the proud owner of a Portuguese flag and when I take groups on sundial walks I sometimes bring it out and wave it with a flourish when I get to the first armillary sphere! Members of the group can then compare the flag version with an example of the real thing! Frank H.
