daskrieg Posted April 9, 2018 Share #4 Posted April 9, 2018 I have many WWI and WWII in my collection i am fond of the WWII ones with photos of the soldier/sailor on it. I do own several cloth ones. If i were bidding i would offer $12 plus shipping but i would go no higher than $15 plus shipping for this particular one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trenchrat1918 Posted April 9, 2018 Share #6 Posted April 9, 2018 That banner is probably WW2 to 1950's, as for price I think its a bit expensive for what it is. For the standard plane Jane banners I will pick them up if there under $20. I will send you a pm as I'm sure I have one or two laying around. Wes.

Mr.Jerry Posted April 9, 2018 Share #7 Posted April 9, 2018 Hi Guys, I am leaving this here for now, as it discusses the ebay banner in question. But remember to keep all wanted/sales activity in the "wanted" or "for sale" threads and not clog up the discussion posts. (Plus as a shameless plug, I am 98% done with my book on service flags, so we will all have a big party when I get that to the publisher!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my fault for posting a wanted ad here, I actually just purchased this flag, (It says it sold for 19.99 but I offered $12 and the seller excepted). I have been interested in son in service flags for awhile especially since I have a lot of relatives who 3 or 4 brothers all served together. Glad this is my first one and hopefully I'll be purchasing more soon to add to the collection. also let me know when your book is finished I would love to support fellow collectors!
