Maine 1901 Flag

 1901 “Lone Pine” Maine Flag with grommets and double stitched edges to reduce fraying.

✍️  The Design: The flag of Maine from 1901 is a simple, beautiful, and historic design that has made a huge comeback in recent years. This banner has been embraced once again by Mainers who love its unique character and clean, striking look.

The design is pure Maine. The centerpiece is a proud Eastern White Pine from the maritime flag of Maine, a longtime symbol of “The Pine Tree State” and its rich logging and shipbuilding history. The single blue North Star in the corner is a direct nod to the state’s powerful motto, “Dirigo,” which is Latin for “I Lead.” It’s a declaration of Maine’s role as a guiding light for the nation.

Set against a distinctive buff-colored field, this flag stands out from the crowd. It’s a simple, historic, and powerful symbol for anyone who loves Maine’s rugged and independent spirit.
