| This flag listed on eBay Rare- 1800's -104th NY- Civil War Veterans 13-Star Flag - eBay (item 320425052451 end time Sep-23-09 11:39:58 PDT) displays the hallmarks of the "Civil War Era" fake flags that plagued eBay a few years ago until the Northern Virginia Relic Hunters Association hit eBay with a barrage of emails to enforce better policing of Civil War relics. The same shoddy stitching of the stars and rubber stamped "battle honors" were used on dozens of flags that were made less than 10 years ago and sold on eBay as authentic historic relics. 104thflag.jpg For more info on the fake flags see this eBay buying guide and come to your own conclusions: eBay Guides - SAVAGE-STATION Fake Civil War Flag Spotting Guide I have alerted the seller to my concerns about this flag. Oh, while I am at it, this "Bonnie Blue Flag" is suspect, too: Antique Vintage Confederate Flag Bonnie Blue 1895 - eBay (item 230378275467 end time Sep-20-09 16:00:42 PDT)
