Continental Frigate Alliance Flag

 One of the earliest and accurately recorded US flag is US flag found on the Alliance, which is reversed the red and white pattern of stripes such that there were 7 white stripes and 6 red stripes.  Likewise the canton had stars that were eight pointed, instead of the common 5 pointed stars. 

 

Here are paintings of paintings of the Alliance with US flag.  Amazing thing about the Alliance is that is was the last ship from that era of the Continental Navy, ordered to the sold out of federal possession on June 8, 1785, under US Gov version 1.0, via the Articles of Confederation.  Note this was 2 years before Washington was elected the first president in 1787 under the US Gov. 2.0 via the US Constitution.  

 Here is another contemporary illustration of the Alliance.

Scramble Flag 1981

 

An overlooked video game classic from 1982 is Scramble, back in the age when video games were new.  No movies, no cartoon tie in, nope.  All we got was the game itself.  No toys to buy, just yet. 

 

In the lower right corner is the Scramble flag, a unique flag from that era, when flags were usually just red or other coloured pennants.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Back then points matter?  Sort of?  A game better than flappy bird, and separated the real gamers from the causal.  Did you ever make it to the end? 

 Blow is a link where you play!  Enjoy! And travel back to 1982!
