Members, posts and public urged to purchase U.S.-made flags and flag products ahead of 250^th anniversary.

The nation’s 250^th anniversary is on the horizon, and demand for U.S. flags, flag-education materials and accessories is predicted to be extremely high in the months ahead.

American Legion Emblem Sales is the nation’s No. 1 supplier of U.S.-made American flags and flag accessories. The Legion also offers flag-education materials – including the new “Rise of Our Flag” graphic novel treatment on the story of the Stars and Stripes, and why veterans treat the colors with such reverence.

Orders are now being taken to get ahead of the demand curve for a variety of U.S. flag products available through Emblem Sales, some of which you may not be familiar with:

-          Emblem Sales offers three popular nylon 3-foot-by-5-foot historical American flags, ideal for outdoor use. They include the 13-star Betsy Ross flag used in the Revolutionary War; the unique Bennington flag with its distinctive ’76 in the canton; and the “Don’t Tread on Me” Gadsden flag that was first unfurled in 1775 on the main mast of the Alfred in the war for independence.

-          91Ӱ���ƽ�� added to its portfolio of illustrated flag-education publications “Rise of Our Flag,” a graphic-novel treatment on the flag’s story, its meaning to veterans and the reasons behind sacred retirement ceremonies. While “Rise of Our Flag” targets young teen through adult readers, “Our Country’s Flag” and “I Pledge Allegiance” are geared toward elementary school ages; both comics are newly updated. For readers of all ages, “Indivisible: The Story of Our Flag” is a 112-page illustration-loaded bookazine that tells a complete story of the Stars and Stripes.

-          Especially during the 250^th anniversary of the nation, new flag pins and tacks are essential of all patriotic Americans, which make excellent holiday and birthday gifts, as well.

-           Perfect for community celebrations, children’s flag-education programs, grave decoration activities or simply to line the streets, lawns and properties of private residences and American Legion posts, affordable stick flags come in sizes from 4-inch-by-6 inch to 8-inch-by-12 inch, and can be purchased by the dozen or by the gross.

-          This is the time to check the integrity of your home or post flagpole. If it needs replaced, repaired or accessorized, Emblem Sales can help.
