    Description

    Presented is a 45-star American flag. The stars on the flag’s canton are printed in “drum” design, with six rows of 7-8-8-8-8-6 stars. Thirteen red and white stripes complete the flag design.
    Utah became the 45th state in 1896. The 45-star flag was used from 1896 until 1907, when Oklahoma joined the Union. Due to the 1898 Spanish-American War and Teddy Roosevelt’s famous world tour of the “White Fleet,” launched in 1907, this was an extremely patriotic period in our Nation’s history.
