Wyoming was one of the last states to ratify an official state flag in 1917. In 1916 an open competition was held by Wyoming's DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution) for the design of an official Wyoming flag.
The Wyoming State Flag has a blue base, framed first with a thin white border and then with a thicker red border. The flag's center is adorned with a white bison and the state's seal is in its center.
The bison on the Wyoming State Flag, is the state mammal, symbolizing the practice of branding. Red stands for the Native Americans as well as the blood of the warriors. The women on the seal symbolize the state motto, “Equal Rights.†This suggests that Wyoming was the initial US state to impart women with the right to cast their votes in 1869.
The seal features a woman supporting a banner with the state's motto written on it. The motto, Equal Rights, represents Wyoming as being the first U.S. state or territory to formally give women the right to vote in 1869. The men on the sides of the pillars symbolize the state's cattle and mining industries. There is an eagle perched on the shield of the United States.
The red, white, and blue colors of the state flag are the same as those of the national flag. The red on the border is a symbol of the native Americans who inhabited Wyoming long before settlers came, and also represents the blood of pioneers who gave their lives to claim the soil. White is a symbol of the purity and uprightness of Wyoming. Blue is for Wyoming's sky and mountains and is also a symbol of fidelity, justice, and virility.
There is a barrage of cheap and inferior Wyoming 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 Wyoming flag for the future.
