Offered is a great “God Bless America” banner, dating to the World War II era. The center of the banner includes an eagle, and an overprinting of “Liberty & Justice for All” across the eagle’s wings. The bottom includes an overprinting of “We are Proud to Be Americans.” This banner would have been proudly displayed in a window during WWII, similar to how service flags were displayed. The verbiage of the overprinting, the image, and the colors combine to make a fantastic piece.
Conservation Process: This banner was hand sewn to cotton fabric, and both were hand sewn to a mounting board. To prevent the black dye in the cotton fabric from seeping into the banner, it was first washed in a standard wash and then in a dye setting wash. The banner is positioned behind Optium Museum Acrylic.
Frame: This offering is in our Medium Gold with Flat Profile Frame.
Condition Report: This banner has some minor water staining across its bottom, and some minor stains across its top. In other respects, it is in excellent conditions and presents wonderfully.
