Georgia State Original Flag 1879 US Historic 3×5 Flag

$9.98

In 1861, a new provision was added to Georgia’s code requiring the governor to supply regimental flags to Georgia militia units assigned to fight outside the state. These flags were to depict the “arms of the State” and the name of the regiment, but the code gave no indication as to the color to be used on the arms or the flag’s background. In heraldry, “arms” refers to a coat of arms, which is the prominent design–usually shown on a shield–located at the center of an armorial bearing or seal. Based on the best available evidence, the above flag is a reconstruction of the pre-1879 Georgia state flag as it would have appeared using the coat of arms from the 1799 state seal.
