qvoicenews.comCreated 43 years ago, the rainbow flag is the most widely recognized symbol of LGBTQ community around the world. The first two rainbow flags were designed by Gilbert Baker and fabricated by a team of volunteers for the 1978 Gay Freedom Day Parade in San Francisco.
Measuring nearly 30-feet-by 60 feet, the enormous banners flew over United Nations Plaza. But the following year, one was stolen and the other was believed lost.
More than four decades later, a remnant of one of those two original flags measuring nearly 30-feet-by-13-feet has been located and authenticated.
On Friday, the historic artifact was added to the Gilbert Baker Collection at the GLBT Historical Society Museum and Archives in San Francisco.

Nathaniel Hall’s First Time is an utterly essential piece of queer theatre – review
We had the most amazing chat with It’s A Sin star Nathaniel Hall a few months ago as he was preparing to tour his play First Time, which caught the attention of Russell T Davies during a previous run and led to Nathaniel being cast in the seminal TV hit of last year. He has revived his play and has been touring it these last few months – we caught it this week at London’s Pleasance Theatre. The tour will continue over the coming weeks with performances in Bath, Birmingham, Nottingham, Dorchester, Plymouth, Keswick and Bristol.
