Rare Medallion 44 Star Flag




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:2788047
Original Description:
   The flag measure 24" x 33--3/4" The white star and stripes have aged over the years with very light stains.. There are 2 tears that have old repairs. One tear measures 4" and the other measuring 1-1/2" On the hoist side,  the end has been sewn down the side.This flag has 44 stars in the canton in an uncommon medallion arrangement with a central star surrounded by rings of 6, 12, and 21 stars,  plus a star in each corner.Wyoming was admitted as... the 44th state on July 10, 1890. When a new state was admitted, the new US flag containing the star for that state did not become official until the following July 4th. Since Wyoming was admitted 6 days too late, the 44-star flag did not become official until July 4, 1891, and remained the official US flag for five years until the official adoption of the flag bearing the 45th star for Utah. The official, and the vast majority of all 44-star flags produced, had stars arranged in 6 rows (8-7-7-7-7-8). Although medallion configurations were commonly found during the period of 1850-1870, these are rarely found acknowledging Wyoming's statehood.
