Description:
View of large American Flag made by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company in 1914, approximately 50" x 95". The Amoskeag Manufacturing Company claimed that the flag was the largest American flag ever made. It was described in the Amoskeag Bulletin as "Amoskeag spun, Amoskeag woven, Amoskeag dyed, and Amoskewag constructed, - an All-American Flag!" The Flag is pictured hanging from the side of Mill #11 where people can be seen hanging out of the top floor windows where the flag is supported by ropes which are attached to a board on the back of the flag. Two women stand in front of the flag, while other people sit in windows, a man walks to the right side of the flag.
