North Carolina State Flag Poly-Max - Made in USA

Grommeted Flags. Made in USA. High winds compatible flag.

North Carolina did not have an official state flag until the North Carolina state constitutional convention of 1861. During this convention, delegates voted to join the Confederacy. They established a committee to come up with a flag. This flag was ratified by the convention on June 22, 1861. The flag consisted of a red field with a white star in the center. Inscribed above the star was the date May 20, 1775, the controversial date of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence. Inscribed below the star in a semi-circular form was the date May 20, 1861, which was the date North Carolina seceded from the Union. The flag also contain two bars of equal width, one in blue and one in white. The design is similar to one suggested by Raleigh artist William G. Browne.

Our heaviest duty flag.

This is the best American made USA flag, of tough, durable and long-lasting two-ply fabric with the highest tear strength. Each star is embroidered, and the stripes are sewn. It is very resistant to the UV rays of the sun. It has excellent strength retention under the sun's exposure.

This is not a printed flag, but dyed for deeper, brighter colors that last over time (due to the aniline dyeing process), with excellent wash-fastness and light-fastness.

This flag has a 1 1/4 inch double edge fold all around the flag, with six (6) rows of stitching on the fly edge where the flag needs the greatest strength. Five and one half inch reinforced hem stitching top and bottom.
