NAVA 54 Vexibit—Al Calavari: Annin & Co Postcard Recall Notice from 1917


Al Calavari showed us an artifact from 1917 as the United States entered WWI.  During such times the demand for US flags can increase.  Consequently Annin & Co. sent out a post card notice that older price quotes are hereby changed, due to 'unprecedented demand for U.S. flags.'

Often in times of crisis and before the start of new war there is collective patriotic push organically signaled by an durastic demand for US flags.
