The Company’s fleet of oil carriers flew the Anglo-American house flag portraying a black eagle astride a white ball, with navy blue and deep red diagonal sections as its background colours.

Re: House Flag
#2 Looks like a company flag flown outside an Head Office building
#3 Looks like a logo from a visiting card, as the telegraphic address would not be shown on the house flag. Just the eagle on the bi-flag (blue-red) could well be the house flag

Re: House Flag
Yes the House Flag is just the inner Flag shown, the Pic i found has the other things with!
So the Eagle atop the White Ball is the actual House Flag!
