I asked that same question on another of these threads and someone posted a picture. I couldn't tell you which thread it is on though. I think it was just a big seal in the middle. Like the one that has all the little flags under the state seal only without the little flags.

What did the pre-Confederate GA State Flag look like? The pre-1956 flag had the blue bar and state seal as seen on the 1956 flag, but instead of the battle flag, it had three stripes, red - white - red. As I recall, the bottom stripe was the same size as the other two stripes, rather than extending all the way across as in the current proposal.
