The Flag Company Inc And Idaho Flag

By Leo Stevens


Prior to the arrival of European and Mexican explorers, roughly 8,000 Native Americans representing two distinct groups inhabited Idaho: the Great Basin Shoshone and Bannock tribes of the Shoshone-Bannock and the Shoshone. Spanish explorers made trips to the Northwest beginning in 1592. Spaniards introduced pigs, horses, domestic fowl, tomatoes, beans, corn and garlic to the Native Americans of the Northwest. Lewis and Clark were the first Euro-Americans to set foot on what is now known as Idaho.

Idaho produces more potatoes and trout than any other state in the nation and is known as the "Gem State" for the 72 types of precious and semi-precious stones it produces some of which are exclusive to the state.

The Idaho Flag was received on fifteenth March in 1927 surprisingly, however, its starting points can be followed back to 1907. The present Idaho Flag was from first March 1957. The Legislature of Idaho made certain alterations on the Idaho State seal. Idaho turned into the 43rd state of the US on third July 1890. The planner of the state seal was Emma Edwards-Green, the main American lady to outline the official seal of a US state.

The Idaho flag also depicts its motto, "Esto Perpetua" or Let it be Perpetual, on the emblem. Just below the seal appear the words, "State of Idaho", written on a red ribbon. The right description of Idaho Flag is determined by the Idaho Flag Laws. The strange proportions of the Idaho Flag, suggests that its width is slightly greater than its length. The original design of the Idaho Flag has been derived from the battle flag used by the First Idaho Infantry, during the Spanish-American War in 1899.

The state seal on the Idaho Flag remains for the main principle and commercial enterprises of the state. The vegetables, foods grown from the ground pile of wheat speak of the farming in Idaho. The digger is symbolic of the state's mineral assets and mining industry. The lady remains for equity and freedom. The elk is a representation of the considerable number of types of fauna found in the state while the pine tree means the commonwealth and timber industry of Idaho.

There is a barrage of cheap and inferior Idaho flags being imported and sold, that do not comply with the flag statute. This is bad for a number of reasons. Imported flags are cheaply made and more importantly, the designs, materials, colors, and methods of printing do not compare well with the better quality, longer-lasting, and correctly designed flags made by American manufacturers. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Idaho flag for the future.
