This “Liberty Pole” is one of hundreds erected in America as a symbol of the colonials’ resistance to British tyranny. The poles were often 100’ tall serving as places to meet or post political news. The Sons of Liberty erected the first one on May 21, 1766 in Boston. Historical records indicate these poles existed across America, especially in MA, PA, NJ, NY and GA.
