1860s, Binghamton NY, Preston Sears, Union Book Store, patriotic tc
Originally uploaded by Exile Bibliophile
A patriotic, civil war period business card, from Preston & Sears Union Book Store in Binghamton, New York, having a fine image of an unusual 35 star American flag (circle within a circle, larger stars in center and at each corner). At top is a quote that may not be exactly accurate, but its meaning is clear. "The first man who attempts to haul down this Flag shoot him on the spot."
