Designed for outdoor use, these beautiful long-wearing 3' x 5' Historic Louisiana flags are crafted from the highest quality 200-denier nylon. The colors are dyed into the fabric for superior penetration and color-fastness. Attaching to a pole is easy with the canvas header and brass grommets on the 3' side. The hem on the fly end of the flag features 4 lock stitched rows to help prevent premature fraying. In February 1861, Louisiana officially adopted this flag which includes a single yellow star in a red canton, with thirteen red, white and blue stripes. The flag was used until the end of the American Civil War.
