History of the Pleated Fan Flag and "Hanging of the Bunting"
History of the Pleated fan flag dates back as far as the revolutionary times in the United States of America, the late 1700s. With flags not as widely available as they are today, these were used and created in a manner that the layman was able to make and reproduce to show where their loyalty, pride and support was in regards to their country. This was first introduced and made requirement for naval ships to use in order to identify themselves to opposing ships on the open waters.
In the Southern United States of America, there is a tradition that is referred to as "the Hanging of the Bunting." This is a celebration or party in honor of hanging up their bunting or patriotic decorations. This typically takes place around memorial day and the bunting stays up until just after Labor Day.
