American and British flags

Title

American and British flags

Description

These tiny flags were worn by the Capertons in England just after the start of World War I.

"Flags bought in London, Eng. August 1914 by Mrs. James W. Caperton and Miss Mary James Caperton, to be worn in the event that the Germans reached London. We did not know at that time what inhuman creatures they were and though a small flag of our country would protect us in every way."
