A little history of Chicago's municipal flag

Apparently it started with only two stars but by 1939 the flag would contain four stars. You can read more about our city's flag at this page courtesy of the Chicago Public Library. I got that link via Chicago Argus in a post where he discusses the use of Chicago's flag as an emblem for the new hometown soccer team. The Chicago Red Stars will begin play in 2009 in the Women’s Professional Soccer league.
