Item Number: 3626
|
The Fort Sumter Flag is a historic United States flag with a distinctive, diamond-shaped pattern of 33 stars. The flag was lowered by Major Robert Anderson on April 14, 1861 when he surrendered the fort, in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina, at the outset of the American Civil War. On April 14, 1865, four years to the day after the surrender and as part of a celebration of the Union victory, Anderson (by then a major general), raised the flag in triumph over the battered remains of the fort.
This is your opportunity to own a replica of this historic 34-star flag, which measures 3' x 5', is made from 100% Cotton, with sewn-on stars. Item #3626 |
