Flag Description

The flag consists of 11 stripes, sloping at a low angle toward the hoist. The stripes are alternating red and white, but the center one is broader and blue, and bears a grey steam train with engine, tender and one wagon. Arched over the train are 7 gold stars mimicking the steam from the train. In the lower hoist is a magnolia blossom, in the lower fly a red camellia. In the upper hoist, the city seal.

I was initially contacted in 1993 by the city of McComb about designing the flag, but was not involved in this project.

The city of McComb has been known as the Camellia City for as long as I can remember.
