User:Jnestorius/Four provinces flag

See Four Provinces Flag of Ireland and Cross-border flag for Ireland.

Notes edit

Phil Shanahan's medals for his four-in-a-row Railway Cup wins (1950–1–2–3) have an identical design except that the four provincial crests are ordered in three different ways (UCLM ULMC LUMC).[1]

The design of Irish Transport and General Workers' Union membership badges from its 1909 foundation were changed periodicallu, rotating between the arms of the four provinces, initially quarterly but later twice or once a year. The red hand of Ulster was the badge during the 1913 lockout and adopted permanently in 1919.[2]

Individual province's arms edit

Unattested orderings edit

  • CLUM

Uncentred circle edit

Where the arms appear on four sides of a monument there may be no "front" of the monument. The possible orderings depend on fixing, say, Connacht and proceeding clockwise.

Nonstandard arms edit

  • 17th-century map of Galway (with arms of Meath in escutcheon, and De Lacy instead of De Burgo arms for Ulster).[56] Linearly at at Mu-C-Me-L-U; Quarterly Mu-C-U-L with Me escutcheon;[56] perhaps the "standard" conversion of linearly to quarterly is clockwise nw-ne-se-sw rather than readingwise nw-ne-sw-se?

[56]

Dublin for Leinster, Galway for Connacht edit

Francis Joseph Bigger's 1912 article "The Arms and Flags of Ireland" rejects the received Connacht arms as an ugly British imposition unknown in Connacht; he also rejects the Leinster arms because those conflict with the arms of Ireland (he rejects Saint Patrick's Blue as a "fake colour"). Thus he adopts the Galway and Dublin symbols which he interprets as Gaelic. Long version also says Ulster has white not yellow field.[138]
