Flag

Company burgee from the Ford Motor Company steamship fleet. The flag is blue and yellow and is made of heavy cotton in a swallowtail shape. It has a blue border (5 inches wide) along all of the edges except for the hoist. The center area is yellow and contains a blue silhouette image of a bluebird in flight. The two tails at the tapered end of the burgee are each 8 inches in length. The hoist edge of the burgee is reinforced with a heavy white canvas binding and a length of twisted manila rope that has metal eyes spliced at each end. The manufacturer's stamped label notes: "X6 Storm King, All Cotton WPL 1721."
