Flagging it up

Nautical flags are an international code system used for two ships to signal to each other or for a ship to signal to shore. The ones on the front of the card spell out a sentence that is a ‘pangram’ – one that contains every letter of the alphabet at least once. This particular example has been used to test typing equipment since the late 1800s. But it’ll provide very useful reference if you’re wanting to learn nautical flags!­­­
