A process for folding the California state flag comprising:
- A) A standard rectangular California state flag of cloth material. The said flag shall consist of a length equal to one and one-half the width thereof;
- the upper five-sixths of the width thereof to be a white field, and the lower sixth of the width thereof to be a red stripe;
- there shall appear in the white field in the upper left-hand corner a single red star, and at the bottom of the white field the words “CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC”, and in the center of the white field a California grizzly bear upon a grass plat, in the position of walking toward the left of the said field;
- said bear shall be dark brown in color and in length, equal to one-third of the length of said flag.
- B) The flag is folded in half horizontally with the words “CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC” outward facing and creased. The flag is folded in half once more horizontally and creased.
- C) The rectangular shape is flipped over so the words “CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC” are not visible.
- D) Nine alternating triangular folds are accomplished, starting from the top right folding over to the opposing edge and creased. Each alternating fold should be “tight” and creased. This is continued until “CAL” or “CALI” are the only text that remains visible. There should be excess to the left of the folds.
- E) The remaining excess is folded from the top and tucked into the folds to complete the triangle shape. The final triangle shape is creased.
