A note on Black Fimbrations

Would it be wrong to suppose, that the narrow black fimbrations in some of the flags mostly has to do with Hergé's style of drawing? He drew vitually everything with black borders, which doesn't mean it should be like that in "reality".

That's a possibility, of course. I would even say that it's a probability. But I don't think we can say anything about it for sure without asking Hergé himself, which is not probable to happen in the near future ;-) Therefore, I just put a fimbriation where there was a fimbriation in the flags of the french site (except all around the flags themselves, which has an even higher probability - about 99.9%, really - to be a drawing artifact).

From: "Le Sceptre d'Ottokar (1st edition), a black flag with a red disc centered charged with a black device similar to a hourglass.
