Nevada Flag History
An early version of the state flag had gold and silver stars and the words “silver,” “Nevada,” and “gold” emblazoned against a dark blue background. The next design, which was much more complex, featured a shield that was taken from the state seal. It also included a railroad on a trestle, a team of four horses drawing a wagon, a mine, a sheaf of wheat, agricultural tools, and a sun rising over mountains.
In 1926 a man named Louis Shellback III created a new flag design. He was an artist for the state highway department. This design was almost identical to the flag used to this day. However, at the time of its adoption in 1929, a state representative recommended that the name of the state was added to the emblem. Instead, the name of the state was arranged around the star. The current Nevada flag, which became official in 1991, reflects his intention, with the letters of the name shown in a single line beneath the star.
