ABSTRACT:
The flagstaff described herein comprises a hollow flag holding unit or sleeve preferably cylindrical in shape, capped at one end and having a longitudinal slot running at least a substantial portion of the length of the flag holding unit adapted to have a stiff, stitched or raised edge of a flag inserted into the holding unit with the flag extending through the slot with the major portion of the flag extending outside the holding unit. With flag in position the capped holding unit is positioned on a vertical staff with the cap resting on the top end of the staff. The flag edge will be retained in a straight line and the holding unit will rotate as the wind direction changes so that the flag will not wrap around the supporting means.
