About This Design

The Serapis (John Paul Jones flag) T-Shirt

The Serapis (John Paul Jones flag) T-Shirt

At the Battle of Flamborough Head in 1779, U.S. Navy Captain John Paul Jones captured the British ship HMS Serapis, but his own ship sank. Jones was now commanding the Serapis without an U.S. Ensign. Jones sailed the captured ship to the neutral Dutch Republic, but with no ensign, and the British claiming piracy, Jones renamed his capture USS Serapis and an improvized U.S. Ensign was made based on a sketch which the Dutch had put together based on a description of the US Flag. So essentially, the flag is an unseen interpretation of what the US flag might look like, based on a single written description. This quirky, alternate flag remains popular and can be found on a wide range of our products.

Have had Zazzle complete a number of T-shirt projects in the past. This one had several design elements. It was well done. I will work with Zazzle again.

The T shirt seems to be made from decent material but appears to be an irregular t-shirt sewn and stitched. .
