Flag of Azerbaijan SSR

|
This flag was adopted by the Azerbaijan SSR on October 7, 1952.
Prior to this, the flag was red with the gold hammer and sickle in the top left hand corner. The Cyrillic characters АзССР (AzSSR) were in gold beneath the hammer and sickle.
Between 1937 and the adoption of the above flag in the 1940s, the flag was the same, but with the Latin characters AzSSR in a serif font in place of the Cyrillic characters.
Between 1921 and 1937, the flag was the same, but without the hammer and sickle, and with the Cyrillic characters ССРА (SSRA) in their place.
