Poštovani članovi i prijatelji Hrvatskog grboslovnog i zastavoslovnog društva,
Češko veksilološko društvo (ČVS) obilježilo je 30. ožujka 2020. stotu godišnjicu čehoslovačke/češke nacionalne zastave. Tom je prilikom objavljena posebna monografija, antologija 17 članaka o povijesti ove zastave. Iako su članci na češkom, uz engleske sažetke, vjerujem da mnogima od nas to neće predstavljati nepremostivi problem i da će biti zanimljivi. Osim toga, knjiga nudi cjelovite engleske prijevode dostupne na QR kod linkovima. Kratko predstavljanje zbornika pogledajte na https://youtu.be/fakDFhRujO0
Cijena knjige je 13 € plus troškovi poštarine. Možete naručiti neposredno, a naše kolege iz ČVS predlažu da radi uštede na troškovima poštarine, naručimo zajedno. Ako ste zainteresirani, molim javite se pa ćemo se organizirati za zajedničku narudžbu. U ovom smislu molim odgovor do nedjelje 26. travnja.
ČVS također ljubazno nudi i neke ranije brojeve svojeg čaospisa "Vexilologie". U zbirci HGZD-a imamo sveske od broja 120 nadalje te sam za našu knjižnicu već zamolio ranije brojeve. Ako imate interesa za stare primjerke tog časopisa, molim javite se ČVS-u. Svi brojevi do 2008. su cjelovito dostupni i na stranicama https://www.vexilologie.cz/cvs/vexilologie/index.php Ako ste u prilici, razmislite da simbolično financijski pomognete ČVS, ako se odlučite prihvatiti njihovu ljubaznu ponudu.
Srdačan pozdrav saželjom da što prije prebrodimo ova teška vremena i da se uskoro opet imamo prilike družiti.

on Monday 30th March our flag celebrated 100 years since it was officially adopted by the Czechoslovak national assembly. This anniversary is very important for the Czech Vexillological Society and we decided to commemorate it with a special publication, an anthology of articles titled One Hundred Years of the Czechoslovak Flag. The anthology contains 17 articles on the flag’s history. It dissects the flag’s design process, the various alternative proposals and the vexillological activities of those associated with the flag’s creation. Each article contains colour illustrations and is accompanied by a thorough English summary. Some articles even have a QR code directing the reader to a full English version of the article available online. For more information we recommend watching the following video: https://youtu.be/fakDFhRujO0
We would thus like to offer the anthology to you and your members for purchase. The price has been set to 13EUR + postage. International postage for one book is 150CZK (5.5EUR). If purchasing more than one book, the price may differ and will depend on the total weight. Should multiple members be interested in purchasing our anthology, we recommend a group order with unified postage. International payment can be sent via a SEPA bank transfer within the European Economic Area or via PayPal. In the latter case, the price is increased by the 4% fee that PayPal charges for transactions.
On a separate note, the Czech Vexillological Society is looking to clear its archives of unneeded older copies of quarterly printed journal Vexilologie, published between 1972 and 2008. Though written in Czech, they provide an interesting look into vexillological development over the past 50 years. Vexilologie’s special value lies in its uniqueness as the only regular vexillological publication from the former Eastern Bloc for a long period of time. To get an idea about the journal, older issues have been digitized and uploaded online here: https://www.vexilologie.cz/cvs/vexilologie/index.php. Various issues of the journal are available in different amounts, some years are no longer physically available at all. Naturally we wouldn’t like the older copies to go to waste and so we would like to offer them to all interested parties for the price of postage. Naturally, should you wish to support the running of the Czech Vexillological Society with a symbolic payment or by offering publications in return, we would gladly accept.
We would be grateful if you would distribute this message among your members and we hope to hear from you soon.
