The Pennsylvania flag was adopted in the year 1907, by the State General Assembly, when an act describing the proper design of the flag was accepted and standardized.
In 2007, the State House of Representatives passed legislation to add “Pennsylvania†to the bottom of the flag in golden letters. However, as of 2015, the state Senate has taken no action on the bill.
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania flag is composed of the state’s coat of arms embroidered in the center of a dark blue background. The Pennsylvania coat of arms depicts two horses with red harnesses, one on either side, standing on their hind legs facing a shield. The shield depicts the strengths of Pennsylvania â€" a ship carrying commerce, a farming plow, and three sheaves of wheat. Perched atop the shield is an eagle. Directly below the shield is an olive branch and a corn stalk crossing limbs. At the bottom of the coat of arms is a banner that reads “Virtue, liberty, Independence†â€" the state’s motto.
here is an American eagle sitting atop the seal and it represents the state's allegiance to its protector or the US. The shield is held together with the aid of 2 draft horses, which are like guardians supporting the shield. The majestic eagle sitting on the shield is suggestive of the sovereignty of the state.
The olive branch and cornstalk, beneath the arms, stand for peace and prosperity. The state's motto: Virtue Liberty And Independence is written on a ribbon at the bottom of the flag.
There is a barrage of cheap and inferior Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania flag for the future.
