Abstract

The present invention relates generally to a rigid and lighted flag assembly for a vehicle. The flag assembly is preferably comprised of a flag mast, a rigid flag, a plurality of lights for lighting the flag, and a power source for powering the lights. The flag assembly allows the content of the flag to be viewable at all times, regardless of the vehicle's speed and regardless of the time of day or night. The flag portion of the flag assembly is less susceptible to the elements, such as wind, snow, sleet, rain, and the like, as well as harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun. Further, the flag assembly is capable of simultaneously supporting more than one rigid flag device at a time, and does not negatively affect the aerodynamics of the vehicle.
