18” x 14” matted display, numbered 21 of 34, is ready for framing. It features a large star on a field of blue along with a section of red/white fabric from a large US 34 star barracks flag that flew during the Civil War. Star measures 9 ½” across. Other section of fabric measures 3 ½” x 2”.
The 34 star pattern was flown from July 4, 1861 to July 3, 1863 when West Virginia was admitted to the Union. While the flag this star and fabric came from was in tatters, it measured approximate 10’ x 16’. The copy photo included in the display shows a similar size flag being used as a backdrop prop. The original photograph of an unidentified Union soldier was taken by Cooley, a 10th Army Corps photographer in Beaufort, SC.
Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. [ld]
