British Union Flag – King’s Colours (1606–1801) – 3x5 Nylon

Product Description:

Before the Stars and Stripes, there was the British Union Flag, also known as the King’s Colours. Used from 1606 to 1801, this flag combined the red cross of St. George (England) and the white saltire of St. Andrew (Scotland) to represent the united crowns under one monarchy.

This design was the official flag of Great Britain and was widely flown in the American colonies before the Revolution. It appeared on military standards, merchant vessels, and in the canton of early American flags such as the Grand Union Flag.
