What did the American flag look like during World War II?
1 Answer
During World War II, the American flag was the 48-star flag used from 1912 (incorporation of New Mexico and Arizona) to 1959 (incorporation of Alaska). The rows and columns of stars were arranged in a regular pattern, unlike the offset rows of the modern American flag. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of antique American flags from some of the world’s top sellers.
