Whiskey Rebellion Flag
The Whiskey Rebellion Flag, has 13 stars surrounding a flying eagle carrying a red and white striped banner in it’s beak. The Whiskey Rebellion flag is a historic flag from the late 1790’s. When the United States government (under the order or Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton) imposed a tax on all mineral spirits, some rebelled and fought back. The sparks that led to this rebellion were of the same flint as those that triggered the American Revolution. The citizens saw this tax as no different than the taxes that they had just freed themselves from against the British in the Revolutionary War. As taxmen were sent around to collect, angry mobs formed and the taxmen were tarred and feathered. This flag came to be the icon of those Americans trying to defend themselves against an unfair tax.
This flag was used briefly, but those who stood beneath it hoped to leave behind a strong legacy. A legacy that portrays a sense that the people of the United States won’t let the government take advantage of us. The Whiskey Rebellion Flag not only represents the fiery nature of the American people, but it shows how the government can’t be trusted with its power. To this day, the Whiskey Rebellion flag is seen as a reminder that we must remain vigilant against an oppressive government overtaxing its citizens.

Rebel Flag – Confederate Collectors Edition, Nylon Embroidered (12×18″ up to 30×50 ft)
The Collectors Edition Rebel Flag is one of the finest sewn and embroidered Confederate battle flags we offer — cut and sewn from premium nylon with fully embroidered stars and the collector detail most reproductions skip: the white border on the saltire is stitched thin, the way the original battle flags were made, instead of the wide printed edge you see on common flags. Like a rare coin struck slightly different, this edition stands apart from the standard print.
Choose Your Size — 12×18 Inch to 30×50 Feet
Available in 12 x 18 inch, 2×3, 3×5, 4×6, 5×8 and 6×10 ft — plus jumbo and stadium sizes 8×12, 10×15, 12×18, 20×30 and 30×50 feet for flagpoles, arenas, rallies and events. The 3×5 ft is the most popular size for a house pole; the 12×18 inch fits truck and boat flag holders.
Naval Jack History — Why This Flag Is Rectangular
The square battle flag most people picture was carried by the Army of Northern Virginia — designed in 1861 so Southern troops could tell their colors apart from the Stars and Stripes in battle smoke. The rectangular version of the design, with 13 stars on the saltire, was adopted in 1863 as the Confederate Naval Jack, flown at the bow of Confederate warships — which is why this flag is also known as the Confederate Naval Jack. The thin stitched border on this edition reflects the look of those period flags.
Collector Notes — Limited Stock
Most manufacturers have stopped making embroidered editions of this flag, and when the current stock is gone we will not be able to restock it. If you want one for a collection, display case, or keepsake, now is the time — this edition may soon be “extinct”.

- Thin stitched white border on the saltire — the authentic collector detail
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between this flag and a standard Confederate battle flag? Two things set the Collectors Edition apart: the rectangular naval-jack proportions (the original Army of Northern Virginia battle flags were square), and the thinner, stitched white border on the saltire instead of a wide printed edge. Combined with embroidered stars and sewn panels, it reads as a far richer flag in person.
Q: Why is the white border thinner on this flag? On original period flags the white border was part of the sewn construction and sat close to the saltire. Most modern printed flags exaggerate it. The Collectors Edition stitches it thin for a period-accurate look.
Q: What size should I buy? 3×5 ft is standard for a house or event pole; 12×18 inch fits car, truck and boat holders; 4×6 ft and up suit larger poles; 8×12 ft and larger are stadium and event sizes that need heavy-duty hardware.
Q: How durable is it outdoors? The embroidered nylon and four-row fly stitching hold up well on a standard pole in normal weather. As with any sewn flag, bringing it in during storms extends its life considerably.
