triotic symbols, from stars to the
flag, were used on every conceiv
able object, including furniture,
textiles and toys.
Children learned early on
about patriotism from their un
trained artisan fathers and moth
ers. Imaginative toys and whirli
gigs with flags and Uncle Sam
made with found materials now
sell at auctions for thousands of
dollars.
Women from the early 19th
century to the 20th century cre
ated blankets and quilts with the
stars and stripes as a subject.
They also used them in hook rug
designs.
You don’t have to spend a lot
to begin a collection. Such hum
ble items such as postcards, sheet
music and even match covers
were produced in war time with
patriot art. As Polak points out
in his book, sheet music prices
range from $l5 to under $lOO.
Prices depend on age, condi
tion and art work.
Postcards with patriotic
themes were made from 1898 to
1918. Photo cards that showed

a woman depicting Betsy Ross
making the first American flag
were popular. It was customary,
until after World War 1 to send
cards for the Fourth of July and
Flag Day.
Old frames with carved, paint
ed or molded patriotic symbols of
eagles and flags still turn up for a
few dollars at flea markets and
garage sales. Another place to
look are the rag bags at house
sales and antique shops. There
are textile treasures to be discov
ered.
Maybe they are a bit ragged.
All you need is a remnant with a
date and symbol.
CLUES: Probably one of the
best places to go searching is the
Internet.
Type in “patriotic memorabil
ia” and you’re on your way. At
antique shows and shops look in
the display cases offering small
objects. A grouping can make an
interesting wall collection.
Along with patriotic symbols
are the symbols of protest. They
can also be part of such a collec
tion, to give an historical per
spective.
