Among the state
flags of the union, the Ohio State Flag is unique. The
Ohio State Flag was designed by John Eisemann. Described as a pennant, the Ohio State Flag is
properly a swallowtail design. The Ohio State Flag was adopted in 1902.
The Ohio State Flag,
unique in shape but uncomplicated in design, is filled with
symbolism. The union of the Ohio State Flag, a large blue triangle, is
populated with seventeen white stars. Those that are grouped
around the circle represent the thirteen original colonies.
The four stars found at the apex of the Ohio State Flag
triangle combine with the stars of the thirteen original
colonies to total seventeen. Ohio was the seventeenth state to
enter the union.
Three red and two white
horizontal stripes and the blue field of the Ohio State Flag,
copy the red, white and blue of the Stars and Stripes.
The white circle with a
red center on the Ohio State Flag forms the "O" in Ohio and
can also be related to the state's nickname, the "Buckeye
State." Like many others, the Ohio State Flag
shares its colors with the National flag. The Ohio State
Flag is easily recognized, since the Ohio State Flag has a
look all its own. |
