Minnesota state flag
The Minnesota flag, adopted in 1983, consists of a bright blue field with the State Seal displayed in the center. In the seal is a ring of 19 stars, symbolizing Minnesota as the 19th state to enter the union.
All of our flags at Star Spangled Flags are 100% made in the USA from start to finish! We use a tough, nylon fabric to hold up outdoors, extra stitching on the fly end of the flag, and a special UV coating to prevent fading from the sun.
