Why is the bald eagle on an American Samoa flag clutching a war club and fly-whisk? It symbolizes America guardianship over the island. Buy a silky 4 ft x 6 ft flag with golden fringe. Enjoy it with a flag base, and optional cord & tassel. You can also choose from a variety of pole toppers like 7-inch metal gold eagle, gold spear (plastic), gold metal spear, Army metal spear, gold metal parade ball, or Texas Star Metal. You can opt between an oak and a telescoping flag pole.
