Item Description from Seller
This vintage postcard beautifully illustrates the evolution of the American flag, showcasing significant historical flags from Scotland, England, the Union Jack, Great Britain, the United Colonies, Rhode Island, and various early American flags including the Betsy Ross design. The vibrant, colorful print captures the rich history of the United States through its changing emblems, with clear labels and dates spanning from the 8th century to 1846. The card is part of a series portraying flags, military uniforms, and insignia of U.S. and United Nations fighting forces.
Produced by Fred Harvey, a known publisher of the era, this linen-textured postcard is a standard 5.5 x 3.5 inches in size. The card’s classic mid-20th century design and educational theme make it a unique collectible for history enthusiasts and postcard collectors alike. The back features a divided format with space for message and address, and a stamp box, but this particular card is unposted and unused, preserving its pristine condition.
