Title
Post-Revolutionary Flags Mistaken for Revolution-Era Artifacts
Abstract
American military flags made in 1777 and flags made in 1797 had the same manufacturing techniques, were made of the same kinds of materials, and often utilized similar or identical motifs. Some flags that are commonly identified with the Revolutionary period are likely not of
that era. The mistaken attributions have been perpetuated in vexillological writings from the 19th century to the present. This piece examines three flags long thought to be from the Revolutionary War that are not.
