Description
Grant & Wilson: Rare Jugate 1872 Campaign Flag. Within this highly prized category, portrait flags trump name flags, and jugate portrait flags trump single portrait ones. And 1872 Grant & Wilson items trump those of the less rare 1868 Grant & Colfax ticket. This striking flag is unquestionably the premier Grant campaign item! Very similar in style to the example illustrated by Collins in Threads of History, page 184, no. 366. One of only several known examples.Condition is also exceptional for a flag of this type: the cloth itself is crisp, and the colors are particularly fresh and bold. Two trivial bits of fabric missing from the edges as shown, near the upper left and lower right corners. An area of soiling in the white border at the upper left hand corner, and some very light soiling down the right side, probably the portion of the flag which was left exposed when it was stored rolled up for many years. 12" x 7.375", custom framed to 17" x 12". This lot requires 3rd party shipping.
