According to the story, it was at this meeting, to "silence the men's protests that these new five-pointed stars would be unfamiliar and difficult for seamstresses to make, she folded a piece of paper, made a single scissor snip, and revealed...

The one thing I'll share here is that this flag is not rugged enough (its polyester as opposed to nylon) for daily outdoor usage. If you want to get something to swing from the back porch then you're going to have to throw down about 40 bucks based on what I've seen. That may be worth it though as the pattern is immaculate and defines the word "gravitas."

I was looking through your website today and was interested to see a comment regarding the Fort Mercer flag by Devereaux Cannon. He made the statement that maybe 'the colors were reversed because someone got confused'. Being close to Philadelphia, the maker of the flag should have had correct information close at hand, but the flag resolution, being somewhat ambiguous, could have led to the maker of the flag to getting the wrong information. .... I recently gave a presentation to two local...
