Description: Calico Jack's flag wasn't a skull and swords, but a "white pendant". There’s no evidence of the skull and crosswords flag being described in an eyewitness, court trial, newspaper article etc. The earliest depiction of the skull and crosswords is in Hans Leip’s Bordbuch des Satans (Log of the Satans) in 1959.
