An Appeal to Heaven - Lego Style

Legos are toys for the youth or adult? Here they are used to remake the American Revolutionary 'Appeal to Heaven Flag.'

I wonder why this flag does not have mas much popularity as the Gadsden Flag? Perhaps in balance to Tea Party Folk - Occupy Wall Street Folk could use this flag?

Coily the Snake Don't Hop on Me - Gadsden Flag Gone Mad!

The Coilysden Flag

Gadsden Flag Fun

The Gadsden Flag is a popular flag of protest. In contrast to the red, white, and American blue or even the Confederate flag, it is a stark contrast with a yellow background and a snake. Here is a list of some pop-art mashups with the Gadsden Flag. It reminds me of the Chinese Emperor's flag but instead of a Dragon we have a snake. And in some mythologies snakes are often thought of as 'little' dragons.

Harry Potter Gadsden Flag - House of Slytherin

House of Slytherin Gadsden Flag
The house of Slytherin is one of the four divisions at Hogwarts. Its emblem is a snake. Thus it makes a good fit for a Gadsden Hogwart's Flag.

This flag is based upon the Gadsden Rattle Snake flag but with arms of Slytherin and 'TREAD' is changed to 'CAST A SPELL.'

The Gadsden Flag of 1776 by John Hewson

Modernized 2012 Version

The Rattlesnake Rebel flag of 1776 has become a popular icon. Here is an updated version based upon the work of John Hewson of Philadelphia. The drawing of the rattle snake is from his own had. Hewson also used a slightly different text by using 'upon' instead of 'on.' Finally the snake is facing right towards the upper fly instead - facing sinister it is would be.
