I am interested in this flag but so far only have the one photo to go by. I would like to make an offer but as always thought I would get opinions re. authenticity. Thank you, nic.

I would be cautious... that one looks amazingly mint... like it was made yesterday. I'm not saying the flag has to look ratty, but I'm automatically suspicious when I see something that old in that good of condition.
Thank you for the comments. I have requested some extra photos and asked about size, material markings.
The seller says "it is made from a durable linen and not marked, as close to perfect as any I have ever seen"
The size is about 4X6 feet.
I too Agree; Looks Too Mint to me. I would be suspicious also.
Is this coming from a dealer???

Don't these flags normally have leather corner tabs?
I don't feel good about this one. They've made-and still are today-Thousands upon thousands of these flags for decades now. Like the others have said, no leather corner tabs is not a good sign either.

Thank you for all the feedback. Glad I put this up to be discussed. With all the advice and the sellers failure to provide extra pictures I will avoid this flag. Thank you, nic.
