The record gives this picture only as a "Thomas war flag," so the unit, owner, or event it commemorates is not identified here. Its date range places the original photograph during the Civil War, between 1861 and 1865, when regimental colors were carried into camp and battle and were often photographed as symbols of the men who followed them. Studio portraits of soldiers posed with their flags were common in those years. This print was made later, in the 1950s or 1960s, so it is a copy of an earlier image rather than the first photographic record.
