North Carolina Republic Flag / NC Secession Flags
Size: 3×5 feet
This was the flag adopted by North Carolina after secession. It was carried by the North Carolina Regiments, along with the Confederate colors, throughout the Civil War. Below the star on this flag the date, May 20, 1861, indicates the day of North Carolina’s secession from the union.
Above the star is the date of the so-called “Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence” in 1776. This was a resolution of the citizens of Mecklenburg County, NC, to be sent to the North Carolina representatives at the Continental Congress, stating that they had separated from Great Britain.
After the Boston Tea Party, Britain closed the Port of Boston. On May 19th, 1775, the elected representatives of Mecklenburg County met at the courthouse in Charlotte and began discussing what to do regarding what had happened. On the same day an express rider arrived with news of the battles of Lexington and Concord. After hearing that British soldiers had killed and wounded fellow British citizens, the discussions swiftly became more intense, resulting in five resolutions that make up the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence. It was not called a declaration at the time, but was a resolution of the citizens of Mecklenburg County. It was to be sent to the North Carolina representatives at the Continental Congress, declaring the fact that they had separated themselves from Britain.
The citizens of Mecklenburg stated that Great Britain had “wantonly trampled on our rights and liberties and inhumanly shed the innocent blood of American patriots at Lexington” and that we “dissolve the political bands which have connected us to the Mother country” and declare ourselves “a free and independent people.”
North Carolina’s Constitutional Convention of 1861 contains this flag ordinance, ratified 22 June 1861:
Be it ordained by this Convention, and it is hereby ordained by the authority of the same, That the Flag of North Carolina shall consist of a red field with a white star in the center, and with the inscription, above the star, in a semi-circular form, of “May 20th, 1775,” and below the star, in a semi-circular form, of “May 20th, 1861.” That there shall be two bars of equal width, and the length of the field shall be equal to the bar, the width of the field being equal to both bars: the first bar shall be blue, and second shall be white: and the length of the flag shall be one-third more than its width.
This flag was issued to state troops in 1861 and used throughout the war. This flag continued in use until 1885, when North Carolina adopted a new design.

Nazi Party Flag — Historic German National Flag & Marine Jack (1920–1945), 5×3 Feet, Cotton with Pole Sleeve
One of the Most Historically Significant — and Rare — Flags in the World
The Nazi Party Flag — serving as the National Flag of Germany and Marine Jack from 1933 to 1945 — is among the most recognizable and historically consequential flags ever flown. This is a rare cotton theatrical edition with a pole sleeve (no grommets), designed specifically for indoor display, museum exhibition, and period-accurate theatrical production. Due to the extremely limited number of manufacturers still willing to produce this flag, supply is very limited.
A Note on Display & Legality
This flag is presented strictly in its historical context. We strongly recommend it be displayed only in historical, educational, theatrical, or museum settings. Displaying this flag outside of those contexts carries significant potential for offense given its association with the Holocaust and World War II atrocities.
Legal notice: While display of this flag is protected under the First Amendment in the United States, it is illegal to display or possess in Germany, Austria, France, Poland, and several other countries outside of authorized educational and artistic contexts. We ship worldwide — it is the buyer’s sole responsibility to understand and comply with the laws of their country.
History & Symbolism of the German Swastika Flag
The flag features the Hakenkreuz (hooked cross, commonly known in English as the swastika) — a black symbol on a white disc centered on a red field — a design personally created and described by Adolf Hitler in his 1925 autobiography Mein Kampf.
The design was adopted as the official flag of the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in 1920, and became the National Flag of Germany on September 15, 1935 under the Nuremberg Laws, replacing the black, white, and red tricolor of the German Empire. It served simultaneously as Germany’s civil flag, state flag, war flag, and Marine Jack until the fall of the Third Reich in May 1945 — a span of 25 years as a party symbol and 10 years as a national flag.
Hitler described his color choices deliberately: red for the social idea of the movement, white for nationalism, and the swastika for the mission of Aryan supremacy — making the flag one of the most intentionally designed pieces of political propaganda in modern history.
The Ancient History of the Swastika
The swastika itself predates the Nazi Party by thousands of years and carries an almost entirely unrelated history across world cultures:
- In Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, the swastika has been a sacred symbol of good fortune, prosperity, and auspiciousness for over 5,000 years and remains widely used across South and East Asia today.
- Archaeological evidence of the swastika has been found dating back to the Neolithic period, approximately 10,000 BCE.
- In the United States, the swastika was used as a symbol of good luck well into the early 20th century — appearing on Coca-Cola promotional items, Boy Scout insignia, U.S. Army Air Corps unit patches, and Carlsberg beer branding before World War II rendered it permanently toxic in Western culture.
- The Navajo people of the American Southwest used a similar symbol in their traditional art for centuries before voluntarily retiring it out of solidarity following the U.S. entry into World War II.
Frequently Asked Questions & Little-Known Facts
Q: Why is this flag so difficult to find? The vast majority of flag manufacturers worldwide refuse to produce this design regardless of its historical context, making authentic reproduction flags extraordinarily scarce. Our supply is strictly limited.
Q: Why is the flag oriented 5×3 (tall rather than wide)? This vertical proportion reflects the banner format in which Nazi flags were most commonly displayed in Germany — hung vertically from buildings, balconies, and parade poles rather than flown horizontally from flagstaffs. This orientation is essential for period-accurate theatrical and museum display.
Q: What productions commonly use this flag? This flag appears in virtually every major WWII historical production including The Sound of Music, Schindler’s List, The Man in the High Castle, Band of Brothers, Inglourious Basterds, and countless stage and film productions requiring period accuracy.
Q: Does this flag have grommets? No — this flag features a pole sleeve/hem rather than traditional grommet holes, making it ideal for period-accurate banner-style vertical display on a pole or rod inserted through the sleeve.
Q: Is the swastika still used today? In its original non-Nazi context, yes — the swastika remains an actively used sacred symbol across Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism throughout Asia. In the West, however, its use outside of historical and educational contexts is widely considered deeply offensive due to its association with the Nazi regime and the Holocaust.
