Description of the flag

One of the flags offered last year by "edwinart" (eBay Shop "Edwin's Stuff") was that of Chemung County, New York (US). This was offer no. 160289228080 which ended on 9 Oct 2008.

Blue field with yellow elements: a central emblem showing an eagle with outspread wings landing on – what? - surrounded by a laurel wreath, with a banderole proclaiming "CHEMUNG COUNTY" above and a similar one beneath mentioning "1836"; at left and right of the emblem, three five-pointed stars arranged in bows.

Chemung County website, showing the current seal – in all, a much more traditional emblem: American eagle, resting, surrounded by thirteen stars: http://www.chemungcounty.com/

I suspect this flag may now be superseded. No current one found.
