1923 United States Flag Code POSTER! (up to 24" x 36") - American

Description: ··· IMAGE ··· Following the Civil War, groups of veterans pushed for an official set of rules that would uphold the sacred character of the national emblem they had fought to defend. This long-time flag-protection movement regained national momentum during World War I, and on June 14, 1923, the first National Flag Conference was held in Washington, D.C., to establish a set of rules for civilian flag use. This poster comes from an authentic, original brochure, distributed by the American Legion in 1923, that sets this new, uniform "flag code" to writing. The rules were eventually adopted by Congress in 1942. While the U.S. Supreme Court struck down flag-protection laws as violations of free speech in 1989, the Flag Code is still maintained as a code of etiquette, enforced not by law but by tradition.
