Description
Flag was produced between 1920 and 1950. Hand print stamped. Heavy canvas material. Probably purchased or made for a movie. Approximately 3 x 5'.
FOOTNOTE:
Literature: Kevin Keim & Peter Keim, A Grand Old Flag: A History of the United States Through its Flags (2007), 31. Note: At the conclusion of the Revolutionary War, the Navy was disbanded and its warships sold. Smuggling on the high seas was rampant and the tariffs to be collected on imports largely avoided. In an effort to remedy the situation and raise much needed income, Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton urged Congress to pass the U.S. Revenue-Marine in 1790. This act created the only American armed maritime service of the time. The official Ensign of the Revenue-Marine was created in 1799, with an eagle with shield, 13-Stars and 16 stripes representing the sixteen states of the time. The present version of the Revenue Service Ensign was adopted in 1868.
