5-Ft. x 8-Ft. Columbus Nylon Flag

Paying tribute to the city's historic foundation, the 5-Ft. x 8-Ft. Columbus Nylon Flag flies a durable display using an acid-dye construction on the 200-denier nylon material. It displays a vertical triband of chrome yellow, white, and scarlet red with the city seal on a blue circular background. The colors of the vertical stripes symbolize Spain's part in support of the expedition of Christopher Columbus to the Americas. The white band bears the city seal inside a blue disc, showcasing the namesake of the city with a ship enveloped in a yellow circular border overlaid on an escutcheon. The shield presents the colors of the United States flag with 13 red and white stripes and 12 white stars, having six on either side of the ship design, on a dark blue background. Settled on top of the shield is an eagle with outstretched wings to connote American symbolism. Behind the eagle is the dome of the Ohio State Capitol building, representing Columbus' importance as Ohio's capital city. Above presents an arched text "Columbus, Ohio" in yellow old English font. Surrounding all the seal's elements are 16 yellow five-pointed stars and a half-wreath of buckeye leaves. The eagle is grasping onto an additional single yellow star, counting all the stars to a total of 17 to signify Ohio as the seventeenth state to join the Union. The buckeye leaves manifest Ohio's state tree. Wave this set of symbols proudly, withstanding any weather condition, as the flag is strengthened by four rows of lock-stitching while attached to a pole through a sturdy canvas header and grommets.
