banner
Cloth message display
A banner is a long piece of cloth bearing a design or message, typically hung or carried in processions and protests: Protesters unfurled banners outside city hall.
The word extends to any prominent display strip—website banners, banner headlines that stretch across a newspaper's front page.
As an adjective, banner means outstanding or notably successful: a banner year for sales.
