Not just the largest US flag,
but the "Largest Flag" anywhere!

"Ski" Demski, founder and father of the Superflag,  The World's Largest Flag is no longer with us.  He requested that Superflag continue to be displayed across this great country for the Thomas L. Demski Trust, by Jim Alexander.

 "Ski" Demski had this flag made of cloth and sewn together in Pennsylvania (his home state) and delivered to him on Flag Day June 14, 1992.

In order to make it into The Guinness Book of World Records® this 3000 lb. Superflag, now The Worlds Largest Flag was hoisted over the Hoover Dam with the help and supervision by "Ski" Demski.

The primary focus of Superflag is to bring patriotism, nationalism, and American sentiment back into our society.  Superflag is but just one of many avenues available to do this.


Big Display Area Required!

Superflag is a whopping 255 x 505 (ft) version of "Old Glory" and was hung on cables across the Hoover Dam to mark the 1996 Olympic torch relay. "It wasn't easy," was Demski's comment.
 Superflag which weighs in at 3,000 lbs., has it's own motor home to travel in.  No special equipment is required to move it, says Demski. "You just need a bunch of people to manhandle it."

There are four sizes of Superflag that are available for rental and display at your next special event.  If you would like more information about how Superflag and learn how it could be the centerpiece of your next special event, please contact us at:  (562) 432-9934 // (562) 431-4332 or email us at:  jim@superflag.com.

That's the Hoover Dam!

Superflag's grommet's were attached to heavy steel cables attached to the Hoover Dam by officials of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, which operates the Dam.  The steel grommets every 30 inches where strong enough to hold the flag in heavy wind, and soon after the Guinness® required time period had passed, one cable snapped!
