For the Love of the Maryland Flag - 8 Ways to Show Your Spirit

A vibrant combination of red, gold, black and white makes a bold statement on Maryland's flag. The colorful design looks great on anything, which is why people love Maryland flag merchandise for themselves and their pets - even if they've never visited Maryland!

What's the meaning behind the design, you ask? The flag contains the family crest of the Calvert family as well as the Crossland family. The state of Maryland was founded as an English colony back in 1634 by Cecil Calvert, the second Lord Baltimore. The black and Gold designs belong to the Calvert family. Crossland was the family of the mother of George Calvert, first Lord Baltimore.The red and white design belongs to the Crossland family.
