North Carolina state flag
The North Carolina flag, adopted in 1885, consists of a navy blue field on the left third of the flag, and a red and white horizontal stripe on the right two-thirds. On the blue field are the letters “N” and “C” with a large, white star displayed between them. Above is a banner with the date of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence, “May 20, 1775,” and the Halifax Resolves when North Carolina delegates approved the Declaration of Independence of the United States on, “April 12th, 1776.”
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.
