Vintage California State "Bear" Flag, ca 1940-1960
Located in York County, PA
VINTAGE CALIFORNIA STATE "BEAR" FLAG OF STOUT CONSTRUCTION, AND WITH SIGNIFICANT GOLDEN BROWN OXIDATION THAT LENDS TO BEAUTIFUL PATINA AND CONVEYS ITS AGE; LATTER 1940’s - 1960’s
Early state flags fall between very scarce and extraordinarily rare in the antiques marketplace. One primary reason for this is that most states, even if they existed during the 18th or 19th century, didn’t actually adopt flags until the early 20th century. The Maryland State Legislature, for example, didn’t find need for a state banner until 1904, in spite of the fact that Maryland was one of the original 13 colonies. Other states had crests or symbols that were tied to the state legislature in some way, or to local patriotism, but didn't accept an official design until many years following statehood.
In the case of California, the "Bear Flag," as all California state flags and variations thereof are often called, is based on a significant early example. The eldest surviving Bear Flag is thought to date to the 1846 “Bear Flag Revolt”. This occurred when Major John Frémont arrived in the state on a so-called mission to reach the Pacific and encouraged an uprising against Mexican rule in the territory. Frémont claimed himself military governor of the California Republic and was brought up on charges of treason for his actions, but was pardoned by President James Polk. Polk was an expansionist and Frémont’s actions brought California to statehood in 1850, immediately following the 1849 Gold Rush.
The original Bear Flag was designed and made by William L. Todd, a first cousin to Abraham Lincoln’s wife, Mary Todd. Painted on cotton, it had a white field with a red stripe along the bottom, just like the modern design. The star image was taken from what was known as the “California Lone Star Flag”, flown during California's previous, 1836 revolt. Like the modern California flag, the red star appeared the upper hoist-end corner, but the bear was placed next to the star. On a later version, designed by a man named Peter Storm...

The Sivas region is inhabited by Turkish and Kurdish people, and until the genocide wrought by the Turks early this century, many Armenians dwelt there as well. Sivas gained certain fame as the site for the Sivas Congress of September 1919, convened by Mustafa Kemal...

Antique Persian Serapi Carpet, Handmade Wool Oriental Rug Ivory, Rust
Located in Port Washington, NY
Extremely Rare size, which leads us to believe this carpet originally was a custom order for a Nobel Family.
Antique Serapi carpets are one of the most sought after rugs particularly in America and England for many years. Antique Serapi rugs are a major draw particularly in big city America. Serapi carpets were woven on the level of small workshop with multiple weavers working several years to complete each rug. Highly skilled artisans, they continually reinterpreted the design as they wove, creating highly spontaneous and inventive artistry. Measures: 16'2" x 18'2".
Serapi is a term that is a mystery in the Persian antique carpet market. There is no location or tribe of this name. Sarab, also spelled Saab, a town in northwestern Persia, is known for weaving only runners with a camel hair pile during the nineteenth century. "Serapi" may be a nickname given by American dealers...

Vintage Pennsylvania Amish “Churn Dash” Hand-Stitched Cotton Quilt
Located in Barrington, IL
This beautifully hand-crafted Amish quilt, made in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania circa the mid-1900s, features the classic “Churn Dash” pattern—a beloved motif in American quiltmaking, symbolizing home, work, and tradition. Rendered in a joyful palette of lavender, turquoise, and pink, the design strikes a harmonious balance between bold geometry and gentle color.
Each fabric piece was carefully hand-cut and stitched with remarkable precision, showcasing the exceptional skill and dedication of its maker. True to Amish tradition, the quilt was constructed from materials readily available in the home—an inspired act of reuse that transformed everyday fabric into lasting art.
The result is a quilt that speaks not only to function but to deep cultural values: simplicity, resourcefulness, and quiet beauty. The fine craftsmanship and striking visual appeal make this piece a desirable collector’s item and a stunning candidate for wall display.
Please note: Some color distortion may occur in photos—refer to the video for the most accurate representation.

United State Marine Corps Parris Island Pennant ca 1917-1930
Located in York County, PA
UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS PENNANT FROM PARRIS ISLAND, circa WWI (U.S. INVOLVEMENT 1917-18) -1930’s
Faded, red, felt, United States Marine Corps pennant with a variant of the central device of its official seal printed in blue, yellow, gold, tan, and white pigments, and “Parris Island S.C.” in white beyond, slightly arched, extending toward the tapered point. Note the whimsical profile of the letter “c,” with an exaggerated, scrolling tail. The device generally consists of a federal eagle perched upon a globe, superimposed on a canted anchor with a whirling chain, the combination of which is to symbolize the Corps’ watchful, worldwide, maritime presence. In this instance the image was modified to fit the elongated profile of a pennant’s basic design, with the anchor rotated slightly clockwise to the horizontal, an adaptation sometimes encountered in both Marine Corps and U.S. Navy examples.
The colors used to represent the Marine Corps changed over time. The present combination of scarlet red and gold, predominant here, were formally adopted in 1925, but American military traditions tend to be as hard to extinguish as the men and women of their ranks, and the Corps was certainly no exception. 14 years would pass before the official change caught up with the Marine Corps’ flag...

19th Century Hand Stitched Crazy Quilt in Turquoise, Yellow, Navy, Green, Red
Located in Barrington, IL
A remarkable example of American textile folk art, this late 19th-century Society Crazy Quilt is hand-pieced, hand-stitched, and richly embroidered. Constructed in a 7x7 block structure, each 11" x 11" square was created by a different individual—likely members of a sewing society or women’s group—making this quilt not only a masterwork of craftsmanship but a collaborative historical artifact. The vibrant color palette includes striking combinations of turquoise, pink, yellow, navy, and green, giving the quilt dynamic visual appeal. Elaborate herringbone embroidery connects each block, showcasing both unity and individuality in the design. Backed with cotton and discovered in New England, this piece was possibly crafted in Pennsylvania in the early 20th century. Crazy quilts like this were traditionally used as decorative throws and are now highly collectible for their artistic composition and cultural resonance. Ideal for wall display, it embodies both bold aesthetics and a profound communal legacy.
