<VV> early crossed flags emblem colors?

[Mark Durham]

Ray, I still have the original on my 62 car and the Red/Black scheme
is what it is. It does not look like it has been touched up. Its
corroded and the paint all faded. I also bought a NOS emblem a year or
so ago and that is the color of the paint scheme on it, too. You never
know, these days, things are so old. Mark Durham

This doesn't seem right to me and I've seen inconsistencies in the paint scheme of other repro emblems so I figured I'd ask the experts =).  The right flag is clearly meant to be a "finish line" flag... why the heck would ALL the squares be black?  Makes no sense to me.  Also seems to me the flag on the left should be red, but that is just based on Corvette emblems I've seen and might not apply to Vair' badges.
