By law, a star is added to the U.S.A. flag on the Fourth of July following the admission of a State(s) to the Union. Shown here are the 27 star fields and the state(s) bringing about these changes. Also listed is the duration of time these flags were the "official" U.S.A. flag. Many people believe the first official flag was the "Betsy Ross"...13 states in a circle. But the first documented U.S.A. flag was the staggered star pattern shown. "Artistic interpretation" of the earlier star patterns also resulted in many variations we are unable to illustrate here. Whatever your reason for flying an "older" flag, it is important to note that no U.S.A. flag ever becomes obsolete. Each is still a legal flag and is entitled to the same respect shown the current flag. It is your choice to decide if one of these is appropriate for you to display.
