Additional Information N/A The city flag was selected from a design contest held in 1900, six years prior to the 1906 earthquake. The emblem is symbolic to six major fires during the gold rush years 1849-1851. (ref. guardians of thecity.org, SFFD, Great Fires). The first portion of the flag motto "Gold in Peace" refers to the Gold Rush era, the second half..."iron in warfare" refers to San Francisco's role as the point of debarkment for troops to the Philippines in 1898 during the Spanish American War.
