One I would pass on , proportions just don't look right and the 80x100 looks odd to me.
Not an expert but I would pass on it , my gut instinct,

Looks ok to me
80x135

I would never buy any item with this makers mark. I strongly believe these are 1970's fakes.

Cheers, Ade.

The example I saw was marked to the same maker , same size marking .
Admittedly having it in your hands being able to feel and smell it makes it slightly easier I would be the first to say I am no expert on things HJ and am more than happy to be wrong without having it the hand my gut instinct is to be cautious.
Clearer photos of the rope loops might be helpful , modern fabrics don't age the same and although similar they are different from period pieces , looking at two 80x135 flags at the moment and the loops on them are larger and seem different.

I have to agree with Adrian on this flag. Plenty of HJ flags out there that are good for reasonable prices. I just sold a DJ flag, unit marked with pole topper also for 825 USD. Patience pays.
