Liberty Tree Washington Cruisers First Navy Flag
This replica of the "true motto, true tree" 1775 First Navy Flag, or Washington Cruisers Flag,
Liberty Tree Flag with its inspiring motto "Appeal to Heaven"
was granted a Copyright in a.d. 2010 by the Library of Congress
on the research and design based on Facts of History
lost in the "creative license" of modern artists at commercial flag manufacturers who show
a "Christmas Tree" shape flag, unlikely due to the many extra stitches it would require
compared to the simple shape of a triangle, or Trinity shape tree, pointing to Heaven, and
finding the ONLY surviving "Tree Flag" from the Revolution has a Triangle shape tree.
The true motto is taken from the letter written by Colonel Joseph Reed, Washington's aide.
The font used, Caslon, is the same as used on that one "Tree flag" and the same as used on
the Declaration of Independence and this Constitution for the United States of America.
Special design has a top horizontal pole pocket so to better display the full flag image.
Until flag manufacturers obtain a license to create this TRUE Liberty Tree Flag, here is
the ONLY place in this Bicentennial Years time frame to buy this replica Historic Flag.
