Medium Cotton British Vintage Union Jack Flag 1930

The printed Union Jack flag in soft thin cotton is in worn but sound order with a very evocative and consistent gentle fade across the textile in a nicely proportioned size.
There is one torn hole present to a central end, with some loss at the corners as expected, but the whole is in fine vintage condition elsewhere.
The current design of the flag dates from the union of Ireland and Great Britain in 1801. When the first flag was introduced in 1606, it became known simply as "the British flag" or "the flag of Britain". The word "jack" was in use before 1600 to describe the maritime bow flag. One theory goes that for some years it would have been called just "the Jack", or "Jack flag", or "the King's Jack", but by 1674, while formally referred to as "His Majesty's Jack", it was commonly called the Union Jack, and this was officially acknowledged.
If you’re thinking of framing an antique Union Jack this is of a great size to do so.
