12-STAR CONFEDERATE EXCLUSIONARY FLAG.

There are a handful of flags of this configuration thought to represent twelve Confederate states, at least two are identified to North Carolina, this one is interesting in that the canton rests on the red “war stripe”. There is little written on exclusionary flags, but there are a good many in private collections and institutions. This flag is totally machine sewn, made of wool bunting and 2-1/4″ machine sewn stars. The writing on hoist “P WHITTINGTON” and “1YD AMERICAN” of unknown meaning. Flag with a 2-1 ratio which is typical for early 1861 Civil War era flags. SIZE: Flag: 17″ x 35″. Frame: 23″ x 42″. PROVENANCE: The Timothy Gallagher Collection. CONDITION: Very good overall. Good colors. Not examined outside of archival frame. 51371-3 (2,000-3,000) – Lot 2016

Auction: Fine Art, Asian & Antiques - Winter 2017
