  • Mounting: A pole hem is a sewn sleeve along the hoist edge that slides over an indoor or parade pole. A pole hem with fringe adds gold rayon fringe on three edges, the traditional ceremonial finish. Grommets are brass rings set into a canvas header, the standard finish for an outdoor flagpole.
  • Single-sided or double-sided: A single-sided flag carries the design on the front only; the back is blank. A double-sided flag shows the design on both sides and is built one of three ways:
    • Double-reverse: one layer of fabric, printed on one side so the dye soaks through and the design shows on the back in reverse. The lightest build.
    • Double-paneled: two panels sewn back to back, so the design reads correctly on both sides. The heaviest build, and it needs the most wind to fly.
    • Single field, double seal: one field with the emblem on the front and a second emblem tacked to the back, so the seal reads correctly from either side without the weight of two panels.
  • Printed construction: Acid dye bonds into the nylon fiber, so the color goes deep and stays bright outdoors. Every printed flag is lock stitched, the stronger interlocking stitch, on the seams and header. For appliqué and embroidery instead of print, see the sewn version of this flag.
  • Size: 3x5 FT, 4x6 FT, 5x8 FT. For another size, give us the finished width and height you need.

The Office of the Attorney General was created by the Judiciary Act of 1789, but for eighty years the Attorney General worked with a small staff and no department. Congress passed the Act to Establish the Department of Justice on June 22, 1870, signed by President Ulysses S. Grant, and the department began work on July 1, 1870.

The seal predates the department. Congress gave the Attorney General's office statutory authority for a seal in 1849, and the design was devised in the early 1850s. President Franklin D. Roosevelt approved the current version on April 27, 1934. It shows a shield of thirteen stripes under a blue chief, an eagle rising from the shield holding an olive branch of thirteen leaves and thirteen arrows, and the motto Qui Pro Domina Justitia Sequitur, who prosecutes on behalf of Lady Justice. The department describes its flag as an ultramarine blue field bearing the seal with white fringe.

  • Eagle with olive branch and arrows: The powers of peace and war vested in Congress.
  • Thirteen stars and stripes: The original states.
  • Motto: Who prosecutes on behalf of Lady Justice, drawn from the old common law pleading formula.

Which options can I choose on the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Printed Flag?

Single-sided or double-sided; a pole hem, a fringed pole hem or grommets; and 3x5 FT, 4x6 FT or 5x8 FT. Review them above, then call or request a quote.

How is a double-sided flag made?

Three ways. Double-reverse is one layer of fabric, so the design shows through on the back in reverse; it is the lightest build and flies in the least wind. Double-paneled is two panels sewn back to back, so the design reads correctly on both sides; it is the heaviest. Single field, double seal is one field with a second emblem tacked to the back, so the seal reads correctly from either side at close to single-layer weight.

For a flag seen from both sides indoors, double-paneled or single field double seal reads best. For an outdoor pole, double-reverse flies most easily. Tell us where the flag will hang and we will recommend one.

Should I order the Department of Justice flag sewn or printed?

Sewn appliqué and embroidery gives the emblem relief and texture, and it is the traditional choice for a ceremonial flag indoors. Printed reproduces fine seal detail exactly and is the usual choice for an outdoor flagpole. Both are made in the USA. If you are unsure, tell us where the flag will be displayed and we will recommend one.

Can the DOJ printed flag be displayed indoors?

Yes. Order it with a pole hem, plain or with fringe, for an indoor or parade pole. For a formal ceremonial flag with appliqué and embroidery, see the DOJ sewn flag.

How long does a printed flag last outdoors?

It depends on wind, sun and how often it flies. Acid dye bonds into the nylon fiber, so the color holds up well, and every printed flag is lock stitched for the wind. Tell us where the flag will fly and we will recommend a size and a replacement schedule.

How is the Department of Justice flag flown with the American flag?

The American flag takes the position of honor. On separate poles of the same height it flies on its own right, which is the viewer’s left. When two flags share one halyard, the American flag is at the peak and the Department of Justice flag flies below it.
