Utah became the 45th member of the union on Jan. 4, 1896, with Salt Lake City as its capital. Utah is known for having some of the best skiing in the country, and the mountains near Salt Lake City receive an average of 500 inches of snow per year.
In 1903, the Utah State Society Daughters of the Revolution (USSDR) presented a state flag to Governor Heber M. Wells. The silk flag, embroidered by Agnes Teudt Fernelius, displayed the Utah State Seal. Each member of the USSDR had donated one dollar to pay for the flag.
In October of 1903, it was determined that an error had been made in the State Seal depicted on the flag and it was also determined that the flag that had been presented and accepted by the Governor was not an official state flag but rather would serve as the Governor's regimental flag. An official state flag would have to comply with an act of the state legislature and thereby be approved by the state legislature.
The 2 US flags on both sides of the seal suggest the association of the state to the country. The central beehive not only reflects the nickname of the state ( the Beehive State) but also brings out the quality of hard work and represents the industry.
Flag makers over the years frequently misrepresented some of the details in the Utah state seal, obliterating or modifying various emblems. As the centennial of the 1911 Utah flag adoption approached, efforts were made to produce an official artistic rendition of the flag and state seal that more closely represented the 1913 version of the flag and included details of color shades. This revised design was endorsed by the Utah legislature in February 2011, and the flag was officially adopted on March 16, 2011.
There is a barrage of cheap and inferior Utah flags being imported and sold, that do not comply with the flag statute. This is bad for a number of reasons. Imported flags are cheaply made and more importantly, the designs, materials, colors, and methods of printing do not compare well with the better quality, longer-lasting, and correctly designed flags made by American manufacturers. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Utah flag for the future.
