Most likely it is a flag that was in use from 1907 to 1911. The 46th star was added to the US flag when Oklahoma became a state. In 1911 and 1912 Arizona and New Mexico became states and the 47th and 48th stars were added. The US flag stayed at 48 stars until Alaska and Hawaii were admitted to the union becomming the 49th and 50th star on the flag
there were only 13 stars in 1912 The US flag started the year 1912 with 46 stars. After New Mexico (Jan) and Arizona (Feb) became states, the 48 star version was adopted July 4, 1912.
I was in the US Navy and flags of this type were flown at the bow of US Naval warships at anchor. The 48 stars reflected the 48 States at that time in history.
48 stars
Forty-eight, in six rows of eight. Just like in WWI. Arizona became the 48th state in 1912; Alaska and Hawaii did not become the 49th and 50th states until 1959. However, because Alaska joined the US in January 1959 as the 49th state the 49 star flag became official on July 4th 1959. Hawaii joined the US in August 1959 as the 50th state and the new 50 star flag became official on July 4th 1960.
yes, each of the 50 states are represented by 1 star on the US flag

48 stars. Reason being Alaska and Hawaii weren't states until 1959. Our 49 star flag became official on July 4th 1959 for Alaska who joined the US in January 1959. Since Hawaii joined the US in August 1959 the 50 star flag became official on July 4th 1960.
