The booklet [u9s03b] shows (3rd and 4th rows of the 1st row, page 14) the same flag where it is possible to discern that the mainly black and white image includes some brown details, the graphic quality of this source notwithstanding.

Flag used at sesquicentennial celebrations

Back in 2002, the Iowa State Association of Counties website hosted an account of each county's history, signed by its County Recorder, and illustrated with a black and white flag image. It is not clear whether these flag images were provided by the county administration or not.

All archived copies of the pages about Winneshiek County still at web.archive.org/web/*/www.iowacounties.org/County+Info/Flags/Winneshiek.htm lack the image of the flag. I hope we'll be able to find it some day. It may or may not have been the same flag as described above but the image being b/w it probably has the same remote source.
