Multi-piece construction, manufactured from 106 pieces in red, white and navy blue cotton, consisting of forty-six individual stars in white cotton sewn in place to the navy blue field at the upper left on both sides, totaling ninety-two stars between the two sides, the white threading that secures each star in place along the outer edge and forming a pentagon in the centre portion, the stars representing the number of states upon the admission of Oklahoma to the union in 1908. The flag would be altered in 1912 with the addition of two more stars for the two new states, Arizona and New Mexico. The seven stripes to the right of the navy blue field are in alternating colors of red and white, the six longer stripes at the bottom of the flag alternating from white to red accordingly, all thirteen stripes representing the original thirteen colonies that became states, the red and white stripes along with the navy blue field sewn in place to each other via white threading. There is a small triangular white cotton reinforcing patch sewn in place at the bottom right on both sides, complemented by reinforced stitching along the far right edge. The left side has a 4 cm wide hoist sleeve in white cotton sewn in place, with large circular brass grommets placed at the top and bottom for flagpole attachment. The flag measures 234 cm in width x 144 cm in height, exhibiting an L-shaped red cotton patch repair with multiple stitch marks on both sides in the second from the bottom red stripe, with a hole present at the upper right and a tear immediately to its left along the top edge, along with scattered spotting and soiling overall. Very fine.
Footnote: This is the national flag of the United States of America, used after the admission of Oklahoma as the forty-sixth state in 1908. It lasted for only four years, until 1912, when both Arizona and New Mexico were admitted to the union, with Alaska following in 1949 and Hawaii in 1950, the current flag with 50 stars.
