New York state flag
The New York flag, adopted in 1901, consists of a navy blue field with the state Coat of Arms displayed in the center. This features 2 female figures that represent Liberty and Justice. Between them is a sun over a view of the Hudson River. Over this design is a globe and an eagle above it with outspread wings. Underneath is a white banner with the motto, “EXCELSIOR,” meaning “Ever Higher,” and the nation’s motto, “E PLURIBUS UNUM.”
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.
