Unique Historical Flags – ID
The state of Idaho is located in one the most beautiful parts of the United States of America. This is subjective to taste obviously, but it is considered one of the most mountainous states of the US by some. The Idaho flag flies wonderfully from objects of all kinds throughout the state, including commercial and residential flagpoles.
Admitted to the Union back in 1890, Idaho was the forty-third state to attain statehood back in the day. With a geographic area that is slightly larger than New England, this territory is land-locked by other states, including Utah to the south and Wyoming to the east. Interestingly, especially since it is considered an inland state, Idaho has the farthest inland seaport (Lewiston) on the west coast!
Like other state flags, the flag of Idaho as shown and flown from steel and aluminum flag poles today, displays the state’s seal on a blue colored background, the background also referred to as field. Interestingly, the words “State of Idaho” are displayed right below the state’s seal in gold colored letters, on a gold and red colored band. Even thought the official description specifies a gold fringe around the edges, most flown flags do not however!
Interestingly, flags and banners throughout the Union have been made subject to surveys of all kind. The flag of Idaho is ranked sixty-four, out of seventy-two other state and territory flags (including some Canadian flags), by NAVA. Regardless of what flag enthusiasts may say throughout the nation, the Idaho flag is presented proudly on and from objects of all kind.
Flags and banners of all kinds are attached to flag poles and such throughout the state of Idaho. Being larger than the state of New England, Idaho is surrounded a number of other territories including Utah and Oregon. Referred to as the so called “GEM” state at times, this is done because (nearly) every known gem to man has been found here.
