House flag of Fiumana

The house flag of Fiumana, as shown in the Spanish naval book Distintivos Navieros de las Principales Sociedades de Navegación (1940) and on the cover of a company's booklet, is a variation of the traditional tricolour of Fiume, red over yellow over blue, the yellow stripe here being of double width.
Other sources shows the flag with equal stripes (image).
