Smith, Whitney. 1700. “Dr. Whitney Smith Flag Research Center Collection [Finding Aid to the Archival Collection].” Archival collection. University of Texas at Austin. Briscoe Center for American History. Held in off-site storage; contact the archive in advance before you visit. Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, University of Texas at Austin. https://www.cah.utexas.edu/documents/finding_aids/smith_dr_whitney_flag_research_center_collection.pdf.

This is the archival finding aid for the collection, which is housed at the Briscoe Center at the Univeristy of Texas at Austin. The Dr. Whitney Smith Flag Research Center Collection reflects Dr. Whitney Smith's professional and personal activities throughout his lifelong interest and career in vexillology. The collection documents Dr. Smith's early vexillological research through the founding of the Flag Research Center and the North American Vexillological Association (1962 and 1967 respectively), and his later work as one of the world's foremost flag experts. The collection is arranged in eight series: Flag Research Center Subject Files; Flag Research Center Archives; Books and Periodicals; Ottfried Neubecker Heraldry Collection; Vexillologists Collection; Flag Charts; Printed Material and Ephemera; and Artifacts and Flags. Whenever possible, the original order of the collection was maintained but in some series there was no discernable order; detailed information regarding the order and arrangement of each series can be found in the Scope and Contents for each individual series (described in the finding aid).

Smith, Whitney. 1700. “Flag Research Center Subject Files. Dr. Whitney Smith Flag Research Center Collection [Finding Aid to the Archival Collection].” archival collection Series 1. University of Texas at Austin. Briscoe Center for American History. Held in off-site storage; contact the archive in advance before you visit. Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, University of Texas at Austin. https://www.cah.utexas.edu/documents/finding_aids/smith_dr_whitney_flag_research_center_collection.pdf.

The Flag Research Center Subject Files are comprised mostly of articles, fact sheets, original research, images, correspondence, and clippings from various sources relating to flags of the world and topical subjects. The files are largely organized by geographical location, first by continent or region, then by country, and so on. Materials in the folders are in a variety of languages and include flag specifications, correspondence about flag design, sketches, photographs, newspaper clippings, periodical articles, and photocopies from archival collections, pamphlets, booklets, reproductions of rare books, and small banners or flag examples. This series largely reflects the order of the collection received by the Briscoe Center and all efforts were made to maintain the existing order. As a result, the series reflects he series reflects broad categories and similar information can be found in different files.

Smith, Whitney. 1700. “Flag Research Center Archives. Dr. Whitney Smith Flag Research Center Collection [Finding Aid to the Archival Collection].” archival collection Series 2. University of Texas at Austin. Briscoe Center for American History. Held in off-site storage; contact the archive in advance before you visit. Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, University of Texas at Austin. https://www.cah.utexas.edu/documents/finding_aids/smith_dr_whitney_flag_research_center_collection.pdf.

The Flag Research Center Archives are comprised mostly of correspondence on the behalf of the Flag Research Center and Dr. Whitney Smith, a full run of The Flag Bulletin, inventories, and business documents. The Archives are also comprised of the personal and professional materials of Dr. Smith. For much of the Flag Research Center's existence, Dr. Smith was the only curator and scholar, so the distinction between some of the series in minimal. As a result, similar (and sometimes identical) information can be found in the multiple series. This is especially present in the arrangement of the Correspondence series. When clarification of order is needed an archivist's note can be found. This series also contains the extensive collection of "ready reference" style notecards Dr. Smith maintained on various topics and lectures as well as bibliographies and shelf-lists.

Smith, Whitney. 1700. “Flag Charts Collection. Dr. Whitney Smith Flag Research Center Collection [Finding Aid to the Archival Collection].” archival collection Series 6. University of Texas at Austin. Briscoe Center for American History. Held in off-site storage; contact the archive in advance before you visit. Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, University of Texas at Austin. https://www.cah.utexas.edu/documents/finding_aids/smith_dr_whitney_flag_research_center_collection.pdf.

The Flag Charts Collection is comprised of charts depicting historical and contemporary world flags. Within their respective subseries, the charts are largely organized by geographical location, region, and country. For the purpose of this collection, a flag chart is defined as a graphic document primarily designed to provide information on a multitude of flags at once by displaying images of flags with identifying captions. Charts of other representational materials such as emblems, crests, coats of arms, and heraldry are considered flag charts. This definition of a flag chart makes a distinction between a graphic document created for informational or research purposes and a graphic document created for presentation, advertisement, and decoration. These types of materials are organized within the Printed Material and Ephemera series. Often the distinction between these two types of information is slight and/or subjective and as a result, similar information can be found in different series. An archivist's note is included whenever possible.

Smith, Whitney. 1968. “Prolegomena to the Study of Political Symbolism.” Ph.D. dissertation, Boston University Graduate School. ProQuest Dissertations & Theses A&I (commercial database). http://search.proquest.com.proxy.library.ucsb.edu:2048/pqdt/docview/302366997/citation/5BE7DC3B50EE4205PQ/3.

If the study of politics is to warrant the denomination of political science, it must encompass within its scope any and all phenomena which may be legitimately be called political. Actors, institutions, behavior, conditions, and procedures must be identified and related to one another and their impact on the political process, great or small, must be demonstrated. To the extent that this has not been done, the task of the political scientist is incomplete. Those in the discipline aware of its shortcomings with regard to such catholicity have undertaken extensive new work in recent decades, as a result of which our knowledge of political behaviour has been immeasurably broadened. It would be a mistake, however, to believe that all possible avenues of research have now been opened. One aspect of politics long ignored--and even now only very imperfectly understood--is symbolism. The primary task of this work is to demonstrate that political symbolism is a valid subject and that its study is worthwhile.

Vexillology is defined by many organizations - including the lnternational Federation of Vexillological Associations and the North American Vexillological Association - as the "scientific study of flags." Exactly what that means is not clear to many. This article presents an overview history, exemplifying many of the issues involved in vexillologicalstudy and suggesting options for future development.
