We noticed that all of the flags on display around town seem to be either the modern 50 star Stars & Stripes or the "Betsy Ross" version (13 stars in a circle). Please let us know if you see any of the more unusual American flags like:

• the "Cowpens" (12 stars in a circle around a thirteenth)
• the "Bennington" (13 stars in a sort of arch over a 76)
• any of the valid forms of the Stars & Stripes with fewer than 50 stars (13, 15, 20, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 43, 44, 45, 46, 48, and 49 are all legal -- 16 & 39 were produced in limited quantities but were never legitimate)
• the "Gadsden" (rattlesnake)
