Pennsylvania and City of Philadelphia Flag in Trading Places - 1983

 

During the Heritage Club humiliation scene the flags of Pennsylvania and the City of Philadelphia appear in the background.  The best shot of the flags when the camera zooms on Clarence Beeks, the covert security expert. The flag of Philadelphia is on the left behind Beeks' right shoulder.  It has a light blue color and you can see the Goddess Ceres holding a cornucopia.  On the right side of the image, behind the left shoulder of Beeks is a dark blue flag with three sheaves of wheat.   A gold fringe and gold tassels are visible as well. 

 

From left to right is the US flag, Heritage Club flag, city of Philadelphia flag, and Pennsylvania state flag. 

The flag of Philadelphia is vertical tribar of sky blue, yellow, and sky blue.  In the middle yellow section is Philadelphia coat of arms.  The colors are based upon the flag of Sweden which planted the first permanent Old World colony in the Pennsylvania and Delaware.
