Flags have been a symbol of human achievement since ancient times. They have been used to lead armies to victory, to claim ownership of vast territories, and to crown mankind's greatest achievements. Flags stir up emotions in us that few other symbols can. Our name "Vexillum" comes from the Latin name for flag dating to Roman times when they used flags to identify their legions on the battlefield.
We carry a wide selection of United State Flags ranging in size from a small 4"x6" stick flag up to 30'x60'. Most sizes of U.S. flags from 3'x5' and up are available in cotton, nylon, and polyester. All of our United States flags 2'x3' and larger are crafted to meet or exceed U.S. government specifications.
According to President Dwight Eisenhower's Executive Order (#10834, published 25 August, 1959) the 50-Star flag would become the "official flag of the United States on July 4, 1960."
