Description: won't find a cheaper 39 star flag anywhere!!! also difficult to find size & pattern. Pattern is known for its 'dancing stars'...great room decor! Purchased a group of these from a Florida collector....only have a few remaining from the collection. Circa 1889 – 39 STAR FLAGThe rare 39-star flag was never an official flag of America. In the late 1800s, it was anticipated that the Dakota territories were would come in as a single state. Flag manufacturers mistakenly gambled possibility of the Dakota Territory entering the Union as one state and produced and manufactured the flag of 39-star flags. It was common for makers to produce flags in advance of their official dates. This was a result of customer demand and competition between the makers. Parade Flags like this were shipped to Hardware and General Stores which would attach to wooden sticks and sell to the general public for ceremonies. Great piece of American history!100% authentic. Measures appox: 8"X 12" Please see my other auctions for more great pieces of early Americana & folk art.
