This magnificent double-sided standard depicting both a Federal and State image was presented to the Washington Guards, a corps of Massachusetts militia which formed in 1810, on July 4, 1838. Finely rendered in oil colors on a silk ground, one side displays an eagle surrounded by twenty-six gilt stars representing the flag's age, while the other side depicts the coat of arms of the state of Massachusetts.
