History

The first Oregon state flag is believed to have been built in 1925. This flag was created by Meier & Frank department store. The flag was awarded to Eastern Oregon University in 1954 and was later restored in 2010.

The original design is still the same design used today. The current flag was designated the official flag on February 26, 1925.

A nationwide competition for the new flag design was held in 2009. The winning design was chosen to contain the beaver on the back of the official flag.

This design has not been used to create a new flag. In 2013, a flag was introduced in the state Senate to update the plan. However, the bill did not pass the Senate, so the flag remains unchanged.

Meaning

The flag of the state of Oregon has two sides. On the front is the Scott flag – or shield – found on the government seal. There are 33 stars around the shield, which symbolizes Oregon joining the union.

The date 1859 is found under the shield, and this was the year that Oregon came to power. “Oregon State” is written on the shield. On the back of the flag is an image of a beaver, an Oregon state animal.

Colors and symbols

The flag is in navy blue with all the golden letters and symbols representing the colors of Oregon.

The shield is surrounded by 33 stars, indicating Oregon’s entry into the union as the 33rd state. Below the shield is 1859, the year Oregon became a state.

The flag of Oregon is the last flag of the remaining state in the United States, in which the front and back sides have different designs.

Paraguay is the only country that still has a two-way flag. Double-sided flags were previously more common, but have declined due to increased flag production costs with two different designs.

The back of the flag also shows a golden image of a beaver, an Oregon state animal.
