California Courtesy Flag 12" x 18"

Proudly made in America.

Designed  for the serious sailor, California courtesy flags are 100% marine-tough nylon, manufactured to withstand damaging sun, wind and salt exposure.  Bright colors, finished with canvas heading and solid brass grommets.  12" x 18". 

The California state flag is called the Bear Flag with the Grizzly Bear representing courage.  The single star may have come from the "lone star" on the flag of the Republic of Texas.  Originally governed by Mexico, settlers declared their independence in 1848.  The war with Mexico soon followed and the United States prevailed.  California became a state the very next year.
