Who designed Montana's state flag?
In 1905, the Ninth Legislative Assembly of Montana voted to adopt a rectangular banner depicting the pictorial content of the The Great Seal of the State of Montana on a blue field as the official state flag.
Montana's design was born of the initiative of a Colonel Kessler, head of the First Montana Infantry. Many people thought that the regimental flag of the First Montana Infantry should be honored with official recognition, so in 1905, the Ninth Legislative Assembly proclaimed Colonel Kessler's flag to be the official flag of the state of Montana. Of course the words "1st Montana Infantry" were stricken.
Since 1905, changes have been made two times to the flag.
- 1981 - The Legislature passed a bill requiring that the word "MONTANA", in Roman letters, be positioned above the seal. This was to distinguish the Montana flag from the flags of other states at a distance. Secretary of State Jim Waltermire also defined colors for the state seal on the flag: from a gold sky with white clouds and white sunrays to blue and white waterfalls.
- 1985 - More specific definition of the letters spelling "MONTANA" was approved. "Helvitica bold" was specified to eliminate the wide variety of styles in use by manufacturers of the flag.
