US REPRO WWII 48-STAR AMERICAN FLAG

Step back into the era of GIs storming the beaches of Normandy and sailors raising the colors over the Pacific. This US Repro WWII 48-Star American Flag faithfully reproduces the Stars and Stripes that flew over America from 1912 to 1959 — the flag that draped the shoulders of the Greatest Generation through both World Wars, the Great Depression, and the Korean War. It's a versatile, fast-moving piece that bridges multiple customer segments in a single SKU.

For WWII reenactors and living-history groups, it's a must-have backdrop for camp displays, vehicle dressing, and field events. Military surplus collectors and veterans' families snap it up to honor relatives who served. Home decorators with a vintage Americana, mid-century, or industrial aesthetic use it as a wall hanging in man caves, garages, workshops, and bars. It also moves well around Memorial Day, Independence Day, Veterans Day, and through the run-up to major war-film and video-game releases.

Historic 48-Star Pattern

The canton features the classic 6-row x 8-star arrangement used before Alaska and Hawaii joined the Union. Combined with the traditional 13 red and white stripes, it's an instantly recognizable symbol of the WWII era and a strong conversation piece on any wall.

Built for Display and Light Outdoor Use

Constructed from 100% polyester, the flag is lightweight, colorfast, and tear-resistant. The reinforced hoist edge is fitted with two metal grommets, making it easy to lash to a flagpole, rope line, tent frame, or wall hooks. Stitched seams along the fly edge keep the flag tidy through repeated handling.
