Texas Independence Flag – Captain Scott’s Flag – Republic of TX Flag
Size: 3 x 5 feet
In the small town of Lynchburg, Texas, Captain William Scott formed a group of passionate volunteers ready to fight for Texas’ independence. Understanding the need for a unifying symbol, Captain Scott, with the help of an Italian immigrant, created a unique flag from a piece of blue silk. This flag wasn’t just a piece of cloth; it was a beacon of hope for his men and for all who dreamed of a free and independent Texas.
Captain Scott’s group of 30 volunteers was part of a larger movement that was growing restless under Mexican rule. Leaders like Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin worked hard to coordinate these diverse groups, striving to form a united front against the organized Mexican army. Despite their efforts, the call for independence grew louder by the day.
By the end of 1835, attacks by the Mexican navy and the looming threat of an invasion led by Santa Anna catalyzed the Texan resolve. Communities across Texas, from Nacogdoches to Brazoria, held public meetings, each declaring the same resolute demand: complete independence from Mexico. This collective voice led to the historic decision on December 10th by the Council of the Provisional Government to call for an election, setting the stage for the official declaration of the Republic of Texas.
Captain Scott’s flag represents more than just one group’s courage; it symbolizes the broader spirit of resilience and unity that led to Texas’ independence

Custer Cavalry Guidon Flag – Union Army 3×5 ft Cotton Sewn Civil War Replica
Personal Battle Flag of General George A. Custer – Handmade by Elizabeth Custer
This Custer Cavalry Flag is a historically accurate reproduction of the personal battle guidon carried by General George Armstrong Custer, one of the most renowned and controversial figures in American military history. This 3×5 ft cotton-sewn flag is modeled after the original, hand-stitched by Custer’s wife, Elizabeth “Libbie” Custer, during the final days of the Civil War.
The flag was famously delivered on horseback and first unfurled in battle at Dinwiddie Court House on March 31, 1865. Custer carried it the very next day during his daring charge over Pickett’s breastworks. He continued to use the flag or replicas of it throughout his military campaigns — including his final days at the Battle of the Little Bighorn.
Today, the original flag crafted by Libbie still survives as a powerful symbol of loyalty, leadership, and Civil War history.
