ABSTRACT:
Flag fastening assembly for fastening the upper and lower portion of the leading edge of a flag to a flag supporting member in a manner that balances the weight of the flag about the axis of the flag supporting member and prevents furling. Each flag fastening assembly includes the combination of a swivel that is positioned longitudinally on the flag supporting member by set screws, each swivel including an outwardly extending member with spaced apart holes near an outer edge thereof and a cord member attached through such holes and linked through a grommet near an adjacent inner corner of the flag. The grommet lies in a plane that is substantially orthogonal to the cord as the flag flies in the wind.
