Hello all, my first post--be nice. I've been looking to purchase a City of Detroit flag for a long time. If you're unfamiliar with it, a photo and history can be found on Wikipedia at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F lag_of_Detroit%2C_Michigan Does anyone know where I may be able to find one of these? I've seen them in the lobby of CCS and at other municipal buildings around town, and also at a friends house (parents bought it at a now-closed flag store on Jefferson), but I've searched extensively on online flag stores with no luck. Any help would be much appreciated. |

The last time I went by the City Clerk's Office a year or so ago, I asked if they had a desk version I could purchase. They said they no longer had them--they only had them during the 300th Anniversary festivities. So of course, I asked if I could buy the one they have on the window. Of course, the answer was no. |

Maybe the reason the store on Jefferson had never sold one before, was because the price they were asking was $175.00! I think the place is now out of business anyway. |
