Claim:
A forever flyer flag and flagpole system comprising: a flagpole on which a flag tube lift that encircles said flagpole, and which raises and lowers thereon via a rope attached to a bottom collar; wherein the flag tube lift includes a spring-loaded support arm that extends outwardly with respect to said flagpole, and supports a flag in an unfurled condition along a top side of said flag and a side of said flag closest said flagpole; wherein the rope traverses within the flagpole via a pulley; wherein a cleat enables said rope to be secured to the flagpole so as to hold the flag tube lift at a predetermined elevation; wherein the flagpole has a top rope exit that limits the height of travel of the flag tube lift; wherein a bottom collar attaches to a first end of the rope and abuts the bottom surface of the flag tube lift to lift an lower the flag tube lift with respect to the flagpole; wherein the bottom collar and the flag tube lift are of hollowed construction, having an internal diameter greater than the external diameter of the flagpole such that both the bottom collar and the flag lift tube encircle a portion of the flag pole; wherein the rope connects to the bottom collar along an inner surface so as not to interfere with the flag tube lift resting atop of the bottom collar; wherein the flag is fully extended along a top side and along a side closest the flagpole, which in effect provides an unfurled flag; and wherein the flag and the flag tube lift can rotate around the flagpole without respect to elevation upon said flagpole.
