Cheers all,
For a program at my museum I'd like to put together a wig wag signal flag. I've seen images of a number of them but never one in person. I know the sizes and kit, what I'm looking for is the weight of the cotton/linen....and if anyone has had experience, which of these two materials were the most common.
I've also seen them in two piece, color in color, construction and 5 piece construction. Any documentation on Union vs. Confederate construction would be most appreciated!
Cheers,
