FlagJASPER JOHNS(New York, born 1930)
Flag (Moratorium) (U.L.A.E. S5), 1969, edition 37/300, signed lower right "Jasper Johns", Committee Against the War in Vietnam, publisher, offset lithograph printed in colors on wove paper, image 17-1/8 x 25-7/8 in. (43.2 x 65.7 cm.), sheet 20-1/8 x 28-5/8 in. (51.4 x 72.7 cm.); aluminum frame, 25-7/8 x 34-1/2 in.
Note: Commissioned by Leo Castelli, this lithograph became a poignant symbol of anti war sentiment expressed in the Moratorium marches that occured across the United States in the Fall of 1969. Johns took the familiar flag and used the colors of military camouflage and the suggestion of Agent Orange and placed a "bullet" hole center. It provokes a reaction. If the viewer focuses on the center white dot for 60 seconds and then looks away at a blank white wall, the familiar color scheme of the American flag appears as an optical illusion.

(39) STAR AMERICAN 6-7-7-6-7-6(39) STAR AMERICAN 6-7-7-6-7-6 PATTERN PARADEflag. Silk, ca. 1889. The unofficial American flag for North Dakota's (inc. November 2, 1889) entry into the Union. 24 1/4" x 15". Extremely good condition, no tears. Very bright colors, a few tiny spots of discoloration. This flag is quite rare because North Dakota was the 39th state, however South Dakota was added the same day, Montana six days later, Washington State on November 11, and Idaho on July 3, 1890. Due to the fact that new official flags were only issued on July 4th, this meant the 1890 flag had 43 stars. This flag was most likely printed to celebrate North Dakota's statehood. When SD was added on the same day, this flag became obsolete and ceased to be produced in less than 24 hours.
