This is an original 38-star American flag. The flag dates to 1876, when Colorado joined the Union as the 38th state. The flag has a wool bunting canton with 38 clamp-dyed stars, configured in an unusual notched pattern. The star pattern features small stars, arranged in rows of 7/5/7/7/5/7. During the times when states were being rapidly added to the Union, flag makers sometimes produced flags in a notched configuration, thus leaving room for the addition of more stars over the life of the flag.

The flag’s design is completed with 13 machine-sewn stripes, alternating in red and white. The flag’s white canvas hoist is fitted with three brass grommets and is stamped “Patented April 26, 1870. 6 FT” in black. John Holt...
