Black and white version of flag shown at http://www.fotosearch.com/OMU116/15p0029/

The flag shows an eagle and a bear as supporters of what appears to be a
seal- a circular emblem with an outer ring bearing 4 stars and the word EUREKA
at the bottom, and an inner image showing a dead tree with a noose hanging from
a branch, a horse and rider in mid-distance, and a mountain range in the
background.
However, the county seal looks nothing like that. It depicts a woman in
classical garb sitting on a hillside (see
http://207.104.47.50/images/seal_shadow.jpg ). I haven't been able to find
anything on the coloring of the flag as yet.

The seal as shown in Wikipedia (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Dorado_County ) is very different from this
flag.
