In 1862, the Union Army issued General Order 4 calling for guidons to incorporate stars and stripes. The circular pattern was by far the most common with the stars painted in gold due to the tendency of silver paint to tarnish. Shown here is a 35-star guidon - 34-star available at the same price.

Flagstuff Union Cavalry Guidons are hand crafted here in the U.S. to authentic dimensions by experienced flag makers using only domestic materials. Our guidons are fully sewn with appliqued stars for an authentic look. Great for reenactments and suitable for framing.

Please Note: Our guidons are made-to-order. Please allow us 2-4 weeks to complete your guidon.
