Product Description

The Grand Union Flag 1775 is also known as the Continental flag, it is the first true U.S. Flag. It combined the British King's Colours and the thirteen stripes signifying Colonial unity. George Washington liked this design so well that he chose it to be flown to celebrate the formation of the Continental Army on New Years Day, 1776. On that day the Grand Union Flag was proudly raised on Prospect Hill in Somerville, near his headquarters at Cambridge, Massachusetts.

A wide varity of Historical flags are offered that comprised our country's unique and storied history. Constructed of 100% Nylon, the flags are all 3'x5' in size, except for the 2'x3' current Gadsden.
