It was used until about 1860, when a narrow serrated white stripe was added at the hoist (some sources claim the stripe was not originally serrated). Around 1916 a white flag with a red square in the center and a yellow (some say red) crescent in the canton was in use. It seems this flag was short-lived and was soon replaced by the previous flag. Around 1932, the vertical serrated stripe was changed to a wavy stripe taking up about 1/5 the length of the flag, which was in ratio 1:2). and the red was then changed to dark red or violet. (William Crampton reports the undulated stripe was light yellow, probably because the original white color faded to light yellow because the use and the sun.)

It includes sketches, written reports, photos of fabric swatches, and what looks like the first use of "No. 1" and "No. 2" labels for the Trucial flags.In 1929 the flag of Qatar was described as "exactly like Bahrain's flag but dark red", with an accompanying drawing that shows the serrated edge. This means that Bahrain adopted the serrated flag before 1932. That same letter also described a second variation of the flag, with a white star and downward-pointing crescent on the red field. Later letters specifically describe this as the flag flown by Qatari boats. In 1932 all British Ships in the Persian Gulf were issued the wavy-line "1932" Qatar flag. In November 1933 a British ship visited Doha and saw the Sheikh flying a different flag, like the "1936" flag but without the name of the state on it. The Sheikh was shown the "1932" flag but didn't recognize it. He gave the Commanding Officer one of the flags from his dhow to use. There's an included sketch and a fabric sample which is definitely maroon. It's probably safe to conclude that the "1932" flag never existed.
