According to [pay00] -
Governor General (1:2) - An other flag following strictly the
British system, blue flag with royal crest above a golden ribbon
inscribed JAMAICA. For the image, I used Graham's drawing of the
crown and lion. [smi82] gives the
flag aretio 1:2~, and marks it as reconstruction - probably at
the time it was not yet well confirmed (but now is?).

At 2.34 minutes or thereabouts, you will see flying what appears to me to be the
flag of the Governor of Jamaica. I am no student of Olympic history and do not
know whether the Jamaicans took part in this Olympiad, but even if they did,
this flag must surely have been hoisted in error.
