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.

Hmmmmmm.... interesting... I have to run right now, but I'll get back with you tomorrow. If I can make some decent silk screens, maybe we could make an arrangement :).

I'd love to have a "Dont Tread On Me" or even Fort Moultrie flag for my truck. I would also like to find the 2'x3' flags that NEPA mentioned. The 3'x5' is a little big for my office, but the 2x3 would be perfect.

Hi again, Nepa :) I've been thinking about it, and if I can come up with a decent silk screen to make one (I'm thinking I should start with the Gadsden, it being the easiest design to silk screen... the Culpepper is only two colors, black and white, but the design is much more complex), I'll get back in touch with you here. I'll save your message in my file and reply to it again :).

I'm not kidding about this... I majored in humanities in college (which is where I learned to be suspicious of liberals, having once been surrounded by them... LOL!), and took a lot of art courses along the lines of how to make things from scratch (such as making my own molds for original ceramics pieces instead of using commercially made molds, building my own canvas stretchers, etc). I'm reasonably sure I'll be able to figure this out, since I've got a natural knack for things like this. I may have been a Renaissance artist in my last lifetime! LOL! :)

I'll get to work on a design this weekend and talk to you later :).

Mama
