22-Star American Flag, Alabama, ca. 1860

Item Details

Description

A 22-star American flag commemorating Alabama statehood or an Exclusionary flag circa 1860, with hand-sewn, single appliqued cotton stars arranged in 6,5,6,5 pattern, machine-sewn stripes, linen hoist retains rope with looped ends; possibly a Naval Ensign. (Dimensions: 73 in. x 138 in.) Literature: Kevin Keim & Peter Keim, A Grand Old Flag, A History of the United State Through its Flags (2007), 67. Note: The 22-Star Flag was never an official Flag as the admission of Maine to statehood took place ninety days after that of Alabama. This Flag may be a commemorative Flag celebrating the 22nd state, or a Civil War Flag with 22 stars representing the states the maker believed to be loyal to the Union.
