Inventor of the Marking Flag Machine
“The Original & Still the Best”
Blackburn Manufacturing Co. is a family-owned business that received its start in 1953 when “Bud” Blackburn was tasked by his surveyor uncle to come up with a better way to mark boundaries than the old lathe stakes. Bud, a farmer by trade but a “tinkerer” at heart, would over the next couple of years, invent the marking flag machine to mass-produce marking flags using a small piece of vinyl attached to a wire staff.
The first flag order was for one million flags so Bud and his two sons, Bob (eleven at the time) and Jim (seven), ran the first machine around the clock for 30 days to fill that order. They then hauled it into Orchard Nebraska to put it on the train for shipment. Easy, right? Well maybe not but it sure started something all those years ago! Currently, all flag machines are still made in-house according to Bud Blackburn’s original blueprints with only slight modifications made over the years. “The same simplistic principal is still there, technology has just enabled us to make things a little easier and faster today”, says CEO Jim Blackburn. The company currently has 50 employees in Neligh and 5 in Paso Robles, CA and exports flags to Canada, South America, Belgium, Spain, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Puerto Rico, Australia, Italy and Mexico and other countries.
