Don't forget your apostrophes.

Good luck. I spent hours and hours for a couple days trying to find a small (8 X 12" or 12 X 18") Gadsden but could only find the 2 X 3 and 3 X 5's flag pole size.
I was going to use them with an eagle flag holder I make out of pine(24" wingspan). I can make them for the larger flags (by making bigger eagles) but the small ones are faster, easier, cheaper, and more likely to sell at craft shows. I make them using the Stars & Stripes but really wanted to come up with some Gadsden.

I saved
this to my hard drive, used a basic grapics program to resize (about 2.5X to 3X), did the same thing with my state flag, found an American flag and sized it approx. 1/3 larger than the other two, printed them out on a color printer and taped them (
properly) on the back window of my pick-up cap.
The display looks great and I've recieved quite a few compliments and honks of horns with thumbs up from folks.

If You're up to doing Your own, You can get t-shirt transer paper for ink jet printer.
You have to "reverse" the art and print to the transfer, up to 8.5" x 11" size.
Then transfer to cloth and mount or do two, and sew together.
Some experimentation may be necessary, but rather than spend the money on screen printing, this may to the trick.

I have a catalog which lists 4" x 6" and 8" x 12" Gadsden flags. The place is called: 'All The King's Flags' Phoenix, AZ. Phone: (800) 223-3524. Didn't see a website.

My pickup flies a 3' x 5' version of both an American flag and a Gadsden flag, one on either side and just behind the cab and about 2' above the roof. Salutes abound! My only problem is that they wear out every few months by fraying on the back side edge. I replace them both when the word "ME" disappears from the Gadsden. Any suggestions about how I might keep a flag from fraying? I've tried a lot of things to no avail.

Hi Mama,
try this URL: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2101063561
The guy's name is Randy Riddle and he sells on Ebay as The Dixie Dealers. I JUST bought a Gadsden patch for my backpack (goin' to Europe; my way of showin' my unusual American pride!); doesn't look like he has any car size flags in stock but could probably special order that for you. His products are A-1 and he ships FAST.
hope this helps!

Uh, and I hate to say it, but I don't think that's the real design. As far as I know, the Gadsden doesn't have a phrase on it regarding arm-bearing. It just says Don't Tread on Me. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.
I do believe there are a few different versions, though.......I like the other, as it has green in it...
