Ohio state flag
The Ohio flag, adopted in 1902, is unique in that it is the only U.S. state flag that is not rectangular. Instead, it is a triangular swallowtail flag design, with 3 red and 2 horizontal white stripes. On the left side is a blue triangular field with a red circle within a white circle, and 17 white stars surrounding them representing it as the 17th state to join 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.
