17th Georgia Infantry Battle Flag – 52×52 Inch Cotton with Pole Sleeve & Ties – Civil War Replica

17th Georgia Infantry Battle Flag – 52×52 Inch Cotton with Pole Sleeve & Ties

Authentic Civil War Confederate Flag – Appliquéd Star Design

This 52×52 inch cotton-sewn battle flag represents the 17th Georgia Infantry Regiment, a Confederate unit that fought in some of the most intense engagements of the Civil War. This rare flag is a faithful reproduction of the original regimental colors used in battle — featuring appliquéd cotton stars sewn directly onto the blue bars, consistent with mid-19th-century flag construction.

Unlike printed designs, the hand-applied stars and rich cotton weave offer a historically accurate, textured look ideal for serious collectors, reenactors, and museum displays. The pole hem with integrated ties makes it easy to mount on any ceremonial or indoor flagpole.
