Target Brands, Inc. we bet is the same colour in the face as their red logo today. Target has been forced to recall thousands of shirts featuring the former flag of Spain accidentally (courtesy of post chronicle.com).
For many the flag reminds them of the widely hated former dictator of Spain, General Francisco Franco. On the red shirt shows in big gold letters that says “Spain”. Underneath the shirt it has the flag of Spain that has not been flown since the 1970s when Franco ruled.
Target Spokesperson said, “We certainly apologize for any discomfort or offense this shirt may have caused.”
Target will give full refunds to anyone who bought the shirt. This must be very embarrassing for Target Brands, Inc. Especially since this shirt will likely make an excellent collection piece for those who want to sell it on eBay.
Was this a mistake by Target, or was it just sheer ignorance? Hmmm, I’ll leave that one up to all of you.
So if you want to fly the Spanish flag whether it be Spain Federal or Spain with Crest and the correct ones at that, then please do so at www.worldflagshop.com
