NOTE ON ALL FLAGS:
All of the flags I offer are antiqued cotton flags that are framed in aged barn wood. All of these flags are built with the highest quality level possible. Also, if you are shopping other sites for flags please note that I only offer one size flag, and these flags are all the standard 2 x 3 flag, or 28” x 40” measuring from the outside edges of the frame. In my eyes, these are of a higher quality level and more realistic than smaller sizes.

1824 Tricolor Flag

The 1824 tricolor flag was the first official flag for the provisional government of TEXAS. The TEXIANS removed the eagle and the snake from the Mexican national flag, and replaced it with the date of 1824. This was done to show the loyalty to Mexico while insisting on the rights granted to them by the Constitution of 1824. The 1824 flag is commonly referred to as the Alamo flag., but historians have recently begun to question whether this flag actually flew over the Alamo.

De Zavala Flag

The De Zavala flag has become known today as the first official Flag of the Republic of TEXAS. This flag was supposedly designed and proposed by Tejano patriot Lorenzo de Zavala. Although no records exist that show that this flag was ever proposed or used, it is still chosen by many in modern day times to represent the first official flag of the Republic of TEXAS.

Troutman Flag (Goliad Flag)

Joanna Troutman designed this flag in 1835, in Knoxville, Georgia. Miss Troutman was 17 years old at the time she designed this flag. The obverse side of the original flag had a Latin phrase which when translated said. “Where Liberty dwells, there is my country”. Miss Troutman presented this flag to the Georgia Battalion, which was heading to TEXAS to aid in the appeal for the TEXAS cause. The Georgia Battalion carried this flag to Goliad when they joined Col. James Fannin. Miss Troutman has since become known as the Betsy Ross of TEXAS.

Gonzales Flag (The Old Cannon Flag)

In 1831 the Mexican government provided the colonists of Gonzales with a six-pound cannon to defend themselves from hostile Indian attacks. In 1835, the Mexican authorities demanded the return of the cannon. When the colonists refused this request, 100 Mexican dragoons were dispatched to retrieve the cannon. The Texians fired upon the Mexican dragoons, which caused the Mexican dragoons to retreat to San Antonio. This skirmish has come to be known as the “Lexington of TEXAS”. Needing a flag to fight under, the community leaders decided on a flag that would proclaim separation as well as defiance. The rising lone star represented the separation from Mexican rule, and the picture of “the old cannon” with the words “COME AND TAKE IT” showed their defiance to the Mexican government. The phrase “COME AND TAKE IT” came about when, one of the Texians responded to the request by the Mexican dragoons to return the cannon, when he pointed to the cannon and said, “There it is-come and take it”.

National Standard Flag
(Burnet Flag & First Official Flag)

This flag was proposed by the ad interim president David G. Burnet. A law was later passed and approved by President Sam Houston on December 10, 1836 which made this flag the first official flag of the Republic of TEXAS. This flag, although it never saw general use, remained the national flag of TEXAS until January 25, 1839, when the current Lone Star flag replaced it as the national standard.

Lone Star and Stripes
(Naval Flag & Second Official Flag )

The Lone Star and Stripes Flag became the second official flag of the Republic of TEXAS on December 10, 1836. This flag was designated as the flag for naval services and war ensign. This is the same flag that was adopted by ad interim president David G. Burnet earlier that year. The flag consisted of a single white star in the blue canton, and seven red stripes and six white stripes alternating in color. The stripes were to represent the original thirteen colonies of the U.S. This flag became the semi-official de facto flag of the TEXAS Revolution on land as well as on sea, and has been thought to have flown at the Alamo. This flag is also said to have been present at the Battle of San Jacinto. This flag represented the desire of Texians to separate from Mexico and join the United States.

Coahuila y Tejas (Alamo Tri-color)

This flag was used by the DeWitt colonists who flew it between the 1820’s and the 1830’s to represent the state of Coahuila y Tejas. The two stars in the white field of this flag represent the territories that comprise the state of Coahuila and TEXAS. There are at least three flags that are believed to have flown over the Alamo, and the Coahuila y Tejas is said to be one of these. Carlos Sanchez-Navarro, a Mexican officer and engineer who participated at the siege of the Alamo, has an illustration of this flag in his memoirs. The flag is believed to have made its way into the Alamo with Capt. Juan Seguin’s company after the battle of Bexar.

New Orleans Grays Flag

This is the one flag that is certain to have flown at the Alamo. This flag was presented to Capt. Thomas Breece and his company of volunteers from New Orleans who came to TEXAS with the purpose of aiding the TEXAS cause. Upon entering TEXAS, a group of local citizens presented this flag to the volunteers. The inscription on the flag read “To the First Company of TEXAN Volunteers From New Orleans”. The volunteers carried this flag during the taking of Bexar. A number of the volunteers stayed on at Bexar, and fought and died at the siege of the Alamo. The flag was captured by General Santa Anna, and taken to Mexico City to prove to the Mexican people that the Texians were receiving help from the United States. The flag is still in Mexican custody to this day.

Lone Star Flag

President Mirabeau Lamar approved the adoption of a new flag as the national standard of TEXAS on January 25, 1839. This flag would consist of a blue perpendicular stripe that would constitute one third of the size of the flag. Inside the blue field, a single white star would be placed in the middle. The remaining two thirds of the flag would contain two horizontal stripes of equal size, the upper stripe would be white, and the lower stripe would be red. The colors represent the same virtues as the national flag: Red represents bravery, White represents purity, and Blue represents loyalty. This flag would later become the official state flag when TEXAS entered the union as the 28th state on December 29, 1845

U.S. Flag

The first basic form of the U.S. flag came about in January 1776 when General George Washington ordered the raising of the Union Jack Flag above his base at Prospect Hill. The flag contained 13 stripes of alternating red and white, and the British Union Jack in the canton (the upper left corner). In 1776, Betsy Ross was accredited with the sewing of the first flag of the U.S. with the stars and stripes. In 1777 the Continental Congress adopted the official flag that contained 13 stripes of alternating red and white, with 13 white stars in a blue canton. The addition of new stars in the blue canton would signify the creation of a new constellation. Through the years, a new star would be added each time a State joined the Union.
