All Star Flags offers a full line of nylon Tennessee Flags. In 1917, a National Geographic magazine article explained that the three stars on the Tennessee flag characterized the fact that TN was the third state to be admitted into the Union after the original thirteen. The creator of the flag, Capt. LeRoy Reeves, admitted after the article was circulated that this fact had nothing to do with his design. Rather, Capt. Reeves utilized the stars to represent the three different regions of the state of Tennessee: West, Middle, and East. The three stars remain together due to the blue circle that encompasses them, "an indissoluble trinity" as described by the captain. All Star Flags has a high-quality Tennessee state flag for sale that's great for showing off your Volunteer State pride. Check out the Tennessee flags for sale in different sizes below! |
