US // California State / Grave or Memorial Flag
Sub-collection: Cities & State of USAUS // California State / Grave or Memorial Flag
This flag was obtained as one of a group of five stick flags, 3 48 star US and 2 California Bear flags from a Solvang, CA antique store in the summer of 2008. These are believed to be from a grave or more likely a war memorial. All the US and Bear flags show use and wear & tear consistent with outdoor display. Further, they are approximately 8x12, but they are mounted on staffs usually used on ground mounted grave or memorial flags.
