Variant design
image by Tomislav Todorovic, 30 December 2024
A variant of the basic design was used as the car flag on at least one
occasion, in London, UK on 1966-06-25. The flag shape was less oblong and the
central device larger, with rounded corners of the black square and the bunny
head facing the hoist. The photos are available here:

While both of
those are black and white, the field color was most likely orange, as used in
other contemporary flags.
