It strikes me how similar the blue version of the New England flag is to the 17th century Blue Ensign. If the blue NE is anything more than a woodcarvers error, I would suspect the two flags to be directly related. Mingusboodle (talk) 16:58, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
- Good point. This seems to be a logical explanation why it was rendered the way it has. I would love to hear a experts opinion on the matter. -DevinCook (talk) 04:56, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Blue Flag of New England
New England Revolution usage
I wasn't sure whether or not this should go in a new section on the actual page or not, but it might be worth noting that MLS' New England Revolution have adopted a variant of the Trumbull flag on the back collars of their 2012 jersey designs, as noted here. (There's a better example of how the flag looks in one of the pics on this page, though.) --Nerroth (talk) 07:41, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
