History of the Conlang Flag, from the Cleveland Public Library exhibit
Art leading up to the final flag design
The Conlang Flag was designed by Christian Thalmann, Jan van Steenbergen, Leland Paul, David J. Peterson and Adrian Morgan. It represents the Tower of Babel (translating Genesis 11:1-9 has been a tradition for conlangers) against a rising sun. It was released into the public domain. The versions above have been re-created at much higher quality by Paul Schleitwiler for the LCS, and are also released into the public domain. The icon files were created by Rebecca Bettencourt based on Paul's SVG.
We're setting up a group buy to make the flag available at an affordable price. (Single orders can be $200+.)
Once there are enough orders to get a good price (at least 12 total) we'll actually collect the money (preferably through PayPal) and place the order.
Price is very highly dependent on number ordered because most of the cost goes towards setup. It'll be around $20-$40 per flag + $8.50 US shipping (~or $12 int'l), from the same manufacturer as before. (Which merits a high recommendation - their prices are far lower than others', and their quality was excellent.)
Keep in mind, this is a FULL SIZE, all-weather flag. 3'x5' knitted polyester, single side screenprint (1 ply), sturdy dual hanging loops on left side. Looks great from either side. Think your standard national flag, except this one has the conlang flag design instead. Ours has stood up to heavy wind, rain, and sun with no deterioration whatsoever.
