Description
Everyone seems to know that Texas is called “The Lone Star State,†but just try asking people where the nickname comes from, and even some Texans don’t know the answer.
There are several theories, the predominant one being that that Texas is the only U.S. state that was a Republic at one point in its history. The star on the state flag symbolizes this, as well as the state’s fight for independence from Mexico in the mid 1800s.
This is also the reason why Texas is the only state that’s allowed to fly its flag at the same height as the American flag.
Most of the other theories also trace the flag’s history back to the bloody fight by the Mexican state of Tejas for its independence, which included on its timeline the defense of the Alamo.Texans are rightly very proud the the " Lone Star " and as you travel around you see the star displayed in a variety of creative ways. You see the star on walls, on fences, on license plates, on sewer covers, on chairs, on doors, and endless other ways. As I traveled around I was constantly on the lookout for stars that caught my eye. In this gallery I will present some of them and also display several all at one in collages for that buyer who would like many in one image.
