United States // State Department / Ambassador
Internet description
UP FOR AUCTION IS AN OFFICIAL, GENUINE U.S. AMBASSADORS AND MINISTERS TO FOREIGN GOVERNMENT FLAG. I PURCHASED IT FROM AN ESTATE OF A LADY WHO WAS ON THE REAGAN TASK FORCE. HER HOME WAS FILLED WITH REAGAN MEMORABILIA. THIS FLAG IS FOR AMBASSADORS ACCREDITED TO SOVEREIGN FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS: BLUE WITH THE ARMS OF THE UNITED STATES IN COLOR ON A WHITE DISC, ENCIRCLED BY 13 WHITE STARS. THE SAME FLAG WOULD BE USED BY A MINISTER ACCREDITED AS CHIEF OF A LEGATION, BUT ALL CHIEFS OF U.S. DIPLOMATIC MISSIONS ARE NOW AMBASSADORS. THIS BEAUTIFUL FLAG IS 34" X 65" EXCLUDING THE FRINGE. IT HAS A 2" POLE SLEEVE AND 2" FRINGE. THE FRINGE IS HAND SEWN. THE TWO ROPE & TASSELS ARE 28" LONG. THE BASE IS RAYON WITH EMBROIDERED STARS. I CAN NOT FIND A MAKERS MARK BUT THERE ARE LEATHER GROMMETS IN THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE POLE SLEEVE. ONE SIDE OF THE FLAG IS IN GREAT CONDITION. THE OTHER SIDE (WITH THE SLEEVE TO THE RIGHT) ON THE LEFT CORNER IS A SPOT WITH SLIGHT DISCOLORATION AND BOTTOM LEFT CORNER HAS SOME HOLES THE SIZE OF A PIN HEAD. THIS FLAG IS VERY DESIRABLE AND HARD TO FIND. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS. EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTION. THANKS FOR LOOKING
