Afghan Army Flag 1978 Holographic STICKER Die-Cut Vinyl Decal

This design reproduces the Afghan Army flag used from October 1978 to April 1980, built around a vivid red field and a gold emblem set in the canton.

Visual Elements & Composition

Red dominates the composition, filling almost the entire field with a saturated, flat-vector tone. Against it sits a detailed golden roundel in the canton, its rim and ornament rendered in a warm metallic gold that reads sharply against the red. Dark green and black appear as small accents within the emblem, and a dark red tone adds depth to the lower scroll. The layout is formal and symmetrical, with the circular emblem anchoring the rectangular field and the triangular motif of the emblem drawing the eye to the center.

Meaning & Symbolism

The red field stands for the struggle against imperialism, feudalism, and oppression. Inside the golden emblem, the Pashto word Khalq ("the People") is framed by a wreath of wheat spikes, and a five-pointed star above it represents the five nations of the country. The red scroll at the base carries the gold inscriptions "The Democratic Republic of Afghanistan" and "The Revolution of April 1978," which date the flag to the period it was adopted on October 19, 1978. The original design was created for the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan as its national and war flag, and it stands as a record of that government's revolutionary identity.

Built for the Surface It Covers

A sticker is cut to its own outline, so the emblem's roundel and the flag's rectangular field become the shape that meets the surface. The design carries its full visual weight on one face, which makes it a strong choice for collectors who display historical flags on personal items. Each piece functions as a compact, self-contained artefact, with the red and gold holding their contrast at a glance.

Holographic vinyl decals with a high-contrast rainbow sheen, printed with eco-friendly inks on premium, weather-rated film. Waterproof, UV-protected, and available in five sizes.

Built to turn heads and hold up outdoors. These holographic decals use premium printable vinyl topped with a UV-protective laminate. The film is rated for multi-year outdoor exposure, so the color stays bold and the surface resists scuffs and sun fade.

  • Signature finish: a 99% opaque rainbow effect that shifts with angle and light—clean edges and a smooth, matte-sheen feel rather than a mirror gloss.
  • Waterproof: designed for rain, splashes, and regular washing on smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Eco-conscious printing: vibrant, high-density color produced with eco-solvent inks for sharp lines and rich gradients.
  • Color guidance: no white underbase is applied; pure white areas won’t print, and very light tones allow the holographic layer to show through. Darker tones deliver the strongest contrast.
  • Easy-peel backing: release liner separates cleanly for quick, bubble-free placement.

Made for smooth surfaces: glass, metal, coated plastics, sealed laptops, bottles, mirrors, lockers, and windows. Suitable for interiors and short-term exterior spots like vehicle windows or signage.

  1. Prep: clean the area with mild soap and water or 70% isopropyl alcohol; let it dry fully.
  2. Apply: peel, align, and press from the center outward with a card or squeegee to push out air.
  3. Set: allow 24 hours for the adhesive to reach full bond; avoid heavy moisture during this time.

Tips: Avoid heavily textured or silicone-coated surfaces. For curved items, apply slowly and don’t stretch the film.

  • Wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth from the center outward to lift dust and grime.
  • Avoid abrasive pads, harsh solvents, or pressure washers that can dull the holographic layer.
  • If placed on bottles or mugs, hand-wash is recommended. Prolonged high-heat cycles can shorten adhesive life.

Available in five sizes. Measurements refer to the longest side of the decal. A “3 inch” option is 3 inches across its largest dimension; the die-cut follows the exact contour for crisp, professional edges.
