Chinese flags Needed

[Huascar]

I am looking for a source of Chinese Flags for my copplestone BoB flag bearers - preferably communist themed, but would consider any flags that are clearly Chinese. I am not particularly a period purist would welcome any suggestions from anytime from the 20s through 50s. Scale is obviously 28mmish, but can scale down a larger image (up doesn't work so well).

Here's a photo of Chinese colours captured after the Sino-Soviet conflict in 1929:

Thank cuprum, great picture but unfortunately my freehand painting skill aren't quite up to reproducing Chinese characters.

I made a file for flags that I shall use on buildings and standard-bearers in my next games; if it can be any use to you:

Nothing special I made it as an .ODG file and printed it to PDF. There are some Republican flags, and Manchurian flags, for the 1920s. The bottom one is a guess (yes I didn't want to paint Chinese writings by hand, either!)

But I still haven't done true unit flags, many looked like those on Cuprum's pic.

Not accurate as I just used a dingbat font and guessed at a couple of colour combos



but I can change the colours and email as a pdf if of any use

The Virtual Armchair General has Chinese flags for several wars, all authentic, all very nice.

I got mine from Iain at Flags of War (on LAF)

Thanks guys, after pushing my Google fu to the limits I found this early PLA flag (although embarking lay the source is Wikipedia) which I will probably use:

Thanks Svenn and Patrice for your assistance.

this is my favorite image,  showing the "Three flags of the Republic of China"  circa 1930s,  indicating that they can all be used together as I do in my army.
