A few interesting facts you may not know about Maine’s “Pine Tree” flag.

My #Maine Flag Submission:
Only four colors
Tried to blend modern with realistic Eastern White Pine
16 perfectly distinct branches
Easier to “sew”
Branches purposely drawn to invoke Maine icons
Two cut limbs reflecting history
Alignment

Going from the current #Maine #flag back to the original #maineflag #vexillology Maybe the answer for a new flag is somewhere in the middle. @ME_House @ME_Senate @MaineSecOfState

But... but... if Maine changes its seal-on-a-bedsheet flag design, we'll lose out on this incredible opportunity for a 2-for-1 design with Portland's "SOB". #synergy #FlagForPortland #1901flag

A refresher on what is agreed to be Good flag design. How lucky are we that Maine has a GREAT flag in our history! Great design lasts a long time and the #1901MaineFlag proves that!

Check it out, we scored a mention in Portland Monthly's Summer Guide!
We'd like to point out how much easier it is to identify the small image of the Safe in Port flag vs image of the current city flag, which is similar visually to looking at them flying on a pole at distance.

Happy to see examples of the Safe in Port flag in use. By the way, the black ribbon over the US flag in this picture is a "mourning cravat" used as an alternative to flying a flag at half-mast when hung on an angled mount. #flagfacts #SafeinPort #FlagforPortland
