Some background can be found at Oxford University boating flags.
The set of three postcards, lilnked above, display selected Oxford College
boat clubs flags, blades (of the oars) and the coat of arms of the attendant
college. There are two editions of this set. The images of some College boat
clubs flags are different. All flags are displayed in ratio 1:2.
Both
editions can be found here:

The flag is quartered of red and blue, parted by a white cross, like the flag of
the Dominican Republic. The centre is charged with two shields, one in bend, one
in bend sinister (despite of the shields of 1848 with another ratio).
(Please
note: in the source it can only be seen that the shields are different, I
divided the college arms and put each half on one of the shields.)
