This is a very nice World War Two Era 48 Star American Flag, in a nice displayable 31 x 56” size. The flag body is of multi-piece cotton construction, with the stars printed on with a header and two grommets. There are no maker’s labels present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flag does show some heavy wear, tearing along the bottom edges of the flag and a sizable hole near the header. Additionally, there is a grease stain on the canton. The flag has the usual age toning, so the white is now somewhat beige. Very nice example, ready to be properly displayed!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe general rule of thumb is that cotton flags were issued during WWII and nylon flags were issued during the Korean War. Flags made prior to WWII were made of a wool blend. This flag is made from multiple pieces of fabric, with sewn on white stars\u003cbr\u003eand zinc grommets. Condition is very good, with the expected age toning and wear from service, as shown.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Original Items","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43408136175685,"sku":"ONSV25WSO042","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1524\/1342\/files\/ONSV25WSO042__01.jpg?v=1755097604","url":"https:\/\/www.ima-usa.com\/products\/original-u-s-wwii-48-star-cotton-flag-31-x-56","provider":"International Military Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
