The present invention is a banner support assembly for mounting to poles of any surface or shape. The banner support assembly includes a plurality of pole brackets abutting the outer surface of the pole which are demountably secured at preselected intervals around the pole with at least one band clamp received through band slots defined in each pole bracket. A ring is slideably received within a channel defined in each of the pole brackets such that the ring is free to rotate around the pole about a longitudinal axis of the pole.

1. A banner support assembly for mounting to a pole having an outer surface, the banner support assembly comprises an upper support assembly which includes: a) a plurality of pole brackets, each including a mounting side configured to abut the outer surface of the pole and demountably securable at preselected intervals around the pole with at least one band clamp which is received through a band slot defined in each of the pole brackets such that the pole brackets and therefore the banner support assembly is mountable onto a round, square, or hexagonal pole;b) a ring slideably received within a channel defined in each of the pole brackets such that the ring is free to rotate around the pole about a longitudinal axis of the pole; andc) wherein the pole brackets are planar plates, each with first and second opposed vertically oriented faces, wherein when the pole brackets are mounted upon the pole, the first and second opposed vertically oriented faces are configured to be parallel to the longitudinal axis of the pole and extending radially away from the pole. 2. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 1 wherein each pole bracket is C shaped which defines the channel as a U shaped channel for receiving the ring therein. 3. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 2 wherein the at least one band clamp comprises two band clamps, and wherein the band slot in each pole bracket is an upper band slot and each pole bracket further includes a lower band slot, each of the upper and lower band slots for receiving one of the two band clamps there through such that the two band clamps are configured to secure the pole brackets to the pole. 4. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 1 wherein the ring includes a removable segment which is demountably attached to a major segment in order to assemble the ring onto the channel of the pole brackets. 5. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 1, which further includes a lower support assembly wherein the upper support assembly and a the lower support assembly are vertically spaced apart and are mountable on the pole for attaching a flag frame to the ring of the upper support assembly and a ring of the lower support assembly such that the rings and the flag frame are rotatable about the pole in unison. 6. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 5 wherein the flag frame includes a vertical strut connected to an upper horizontal strut at an upper end with an upper connector and to a lower horizontal strut at a lower end with a lower connector, wherein the flag frame is configured to extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the pole and be spaced from the pole. 7. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 6 wherein the upper connector includes a ring landing portion for abutting with and connecting to the ring of the upper support assembly. 8. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 7 wherein the upper connector and the lower connector each include a vertical strut channel for receiving the vertical strut there through and a horizontal aperture for receiving the upper and lower horizontal struts respectively therein. 9. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 8 wherein the upper connector and the lower connector are each L shaped with a vertical portion and a horizontal portion. 10. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 6 wherein the flag frame is C shaped. 11. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 1 wherein the plurality of pole brackets includes four pole brackets configured to be deployed onto the pole when the pole has a square cross-section. 12. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 1 wherein the plurality of pole brackets includes three pole brackets configured to be deployed onto the pole when the pole has a round cross-section. 13. The banner support assembly claimed in claim 1 wherein the plurality of pole brackets includes three pole brackets configured to be deployed onto the pole when the pole has a hexagonal cross-section.
