Dimmitt’s Goliad Battle Flag – Texas 1835 Independence Banner | Severed Arm Dimmitt’s Goliad Flags
Outdoor Sewn Double Nylon Embroidered 3×5 Ft
This flag commemorates the Goliad Battle Flag raised at Goliad, Texas, in late 1835 during the Texas Revolution. Designed by Captain Philip Dimmitt, then commander of the Goliad garrison, it symbolized the shift from support of Mexican Federalism (1824 Constitution) to a firm stance for Texas independence.
The banner depicts a red, severed arm gripping a sword—a powerful, militant emblem reportedly raised on December 20, 1835, in celebration of the Goliad Declaration of Independence. While multiple units flew flags in Goliad, memoirs from participants John James and Nicholas Fagan confirm Dimmitt personally crafted this design from white domestic cloth with a crimson arm and sword at its center.

Scotland Flag – St. Andrew’s Cross Flags
Sewn Thick Premium Heavy Cotton
Size: 3 x 5 feet
The Saint Andrew’s Cross flag of Scotland is one of the oldest national flags. The cross itself dates to at least to 12th century. This diagonal cross is also known as a saltire. Andrew was a disciple of Christ. Legend tells us that he was crucified on a cross with diagonal beams. His remains were preserved, and several hundred years later Emperor Constantine wanted to move them to his capitol. Warned by an angel of this, a monk was instructed to take them to the ends of the Earth. He traveled until he was shipwrecked in Scotland. We know that some of Andrew’s relics were taken to the town of St. Andrews in Scotland, by the Bishop of Hexham in 733 AD (Hexham Abbey is in northern England very near Hadrian’s wall, and is also dedicated to St. Andrew).
