    Hello Friends,

    I recently added this grouping to my collection, and thought that you might like seeing it. I also have a few questions for you. Is there a possibility that the service banner was theater made? And, what can you tell me about the copper item and the gold toned button? As always i look forward to to all input!

    Have a Good Day,

    Very nice!!! I would like to guess that maybe the "service" banner was hung in a window. Similar to what we see now for families that have a son/daughter deployed (my neighbor has one)
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

    Hi Martin

    The "sons" in service banner was a US home front patriotic way for families to show how many members were in service. Normally put inside the front room window for display to passers by.

    Yours is interesting because it has Infantry and crossed rifles with bayonet on top. So this would be US made-can you show the back of the banner?

    Nice grouping.

    Hello Phill,

    Put away somewhere I have my Grandmothers "Blue Star Mothers" banner, that she had in her window when my Father and Uncle were in WWII. Here are some images of the reverse that you requested. Thanks for your time and review! :-)

    Hi Martin

    These a re better clear pictures.

    I first thought that the "Infantry" and "Crossed rifles " looked like they were felt , however this is all hand embroidered , one could assume this was made by the mother or close family friends , but that is speculation and we know how far that gets!!

    Very nice sons in service banner , hand made US home front-superb.

    Phill
