Garfield,
Here is a picture of the Betsy Ross flag that I hang in my room and fight for.

BETSY ROSS
This flag was adopted June 14, 1777 (Flag Day). The Continental Congress on this day resolved, “That the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes alternating red and white; that the Union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation”. The circular design was by George Washington, Francis Hopkins and Betsy Ross. The Congress however did not specify an arrangement for the stars in the canton, as a result there are many variations in the flags that followed until 1912. |
