Italian National Flag, 2001.

National Flag of Italy, 2001.
This small, synthetic Italian flag was made in Florence, Italy. Flags always have been and remain a popular souvenir for travelers as can be seen in this example from Italy. It is inscribed "Italian national flag obtained in Florence, Italy by the Zaricor Family, June, 29 2001".

This flag was acquired new and is therefore a special exception in the Zaricor Flag Collection, which almost always attempts to acquire used flags with a provenance.

Provenance: Acquired on a family vacation in Italy, 2001.
