Red Weathered Pirate Flag Calico Jack Rackham, With Swords
3 x 5 ft. Standard
- Very cool looking flag has a weathered vintage look to it
Much of Calico Jack’s fame comes from the fact that the two most famous woman pirates, Anne Bonny and Mary Read, sailed under this flag. Calico Jack got his nickname because he wore striped calico pants. Calico is an inexpensive cotton fabric that came from India.
One tale of his adventures is this: Calico Jack and his crew were on board their vessel in a Cuban harbor, making ready to sail. Into the harbor came a Spanish warship, with a small English ship which she had captured. The Spanish attacked, but Rackam’s vessel was close in behind a little Island. The Spanish decided to wait until the morning to continue their assault. Rackam’s situation was desperate. He was outgunned, escape nearly impossible, so a daring scheme was hatched. The captured English ship was close to land, so in the dead of night Calico Jack put his men into a boat, rounded the island and fell upon the sloop without being discovered. Brandishing pistols and cutlasses, they told the Spanish on board that if they made the least noise they were dead men. Rackam then made away and out to sea. The Spanish Man of War was so intent on the pirates the next morning that they made furious fire upon the now empty pirate vessel, only later realizing that the English ship had been stolen away with the pirates on board.

Used from 1861 to 1863. This flag was first flown over the Montgomery, Alabama, capitol building on March 4, 1861. It was chosen from hundreds of designs submitted to the provisional Confederate Government and then voted on by the Provisional Confederate Congress.
At first, the flag had 7 stars, one for each member of the new Confederacy. Later, more stars were added as new states left the United States to join the Confederacy.
The flag was eventually changed because many people felt it looked too much like the Union flag. Some also believe that on a busy and smoky battlefield, the flag was easily confused with the Union flag, which may have led soldiers to follow the wrong flag during battle.
