Black Gadsden Colonial Style Flag Throw BlanketAt the onset of the Revolution, standards were not so standardized. One of the most popular, however, was the one that rebel marines began to fashion featuring the Eastern rattler over the motto "DONT TREAD ON ME" on items like drums. The true derivation of what has come to be known as the "Gadsden flag" gets a bit murky from there, however.

At the onset of the Revolution, standards were not so standardized. One of the most popular, however, was the one that rebel marines began to fashion featuring the Eastern rattler over the motto "DONT TREAD ON ME" on items like drums. The true derivation of what has come to be known as the "Gadsden flag" gets a bit murky from there, however. By 1775 the image of a coiled snake ready to lash out was fairly ubiquitous in the colonies. It was seen on buttons, money, standards, and newspapers. In fact, the snake had been used for well over a decade as an icon of colonial aspirations toward independence.

What we do know is that the standard's namesake, Colonel Christopher Gadsden, was indeed a member of the Marine Committee. He presented this flag to Commodore Esek Hopkins. At least one that looks like the one we've all come to recognize - a snake above the motto on a yellow field.

For this colonial flag reimagining, we looked at a number of different accounts from historians and vexillologists about what other versions may have looked like throughout the colonies. In a land of merchants, we assume craftspeople would have created all sorts of handmade "Don't Tread On Me" images in their dissent and sold or gave them to their neighbors. So we created this Gadsden image as a stamped image much like would be published in a press or woodcut in a workshop.

Dan wanted to create a distinctive way to show authentic patriotism that might have been seen in the late 18th Century, and offer a whole line of flag products as unique as the people that would put them in their homes.

The Gadsden Flag design is a classic emblem of independence and liberty. Ben Franklin himself noted how the rattlesnake was a perfect emblem of the American Spirit and vigilance against tyranny with its eyes never shut by lids and “She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders.”

This one was created from Dan McCall's illustration for an insigne for his own home. They are made in the USA and shipped directly to you.

My dog loves glowing fetch at night!
Style: Glow Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
Fantastic. Sturdy. My dog loves them Glow in the dark is great for fetch at night. I keep a flashlight with me because the glow doesn't last really long. But they charge very quickly and are really bright.

Indestructible
Style: Fetch Balls (Pack of 2), Size: 3 inch
These balls are indestructible! We have a lab and a lab mix and they CANNOT damage these balls. They love them for fetch and to just chew on them (slightly squishy, but NO damage). Best toys we have bought for them.

Great trial set. Just be careful throwing the orange one!
Style: Assorted Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
Blue isn't that easy to see in the yard White charges with bright light/UV and is truly a game changer for night-time fetch. Both dogs clearly favor it. Orange is easy to see in the grass at day They're 3 different weights as well, so double trial. I prefer medium for my big dogs, though light performs well too The orange is HEAVY and unyielding. Do NOT throw it with a ball thrower. It could damage your house or knock your dog out. Seems tough though.
