Description
A vintage United States flag kit presented in its original elongated cardboard box. The box features printed graphics depicting a blue canton with a single star and red and white stripes, labeled UNITED STATES FLAG KIT in bold block lettering. The kit contains a textile American flag with sewn stripes, a sectional gold-tone metal flagpole, a cast gold-tone eagle finial, and a length of white rope. The flag is constructed from a woven fabric, likely cotton or a cotton blend. The metal pole is comprised of multiple nesting sections for assembly. No manufacturer markings are clearly visible on the exterior surfaces shown.
Condition report:
The kit exhibits age-appropriate wear throughout. The original cardboard box shows significant yellowing, foxing, and staining, with visible creasing, edge wear, and some surface loss to the printed areas. The internal contents appear used but intact, with the flag showing light toning and the metal components displaying minor surface wear and oxidation consistent with age and storage.
