Condition:
Both flags are in good vintage condition showing beautiful, authentic age patina. There is some light, expected discoloration/browning on the white cotton fields from decades of storage, which adds fantastic character for display. No major rips or tears. Please review the high-resolution photos carefully to judge the exact condition for yourself.Age Note & Disclaimer:
These flags were acquired as part of a larger multi-flag historical estate lot. Given the nature and historical context of the other companion flags found directly alongside them in this specific lot, we estimate that these pieces date back to the 1940s wartime era. Please note that there are no manufacturer stamps, ink markings, or signatures on the fabric headers; therefore, we have no way of guaranteeing the exact age or precise year of manufacture. They are being sold as-is as excellent vintage historical display pieces.
