Georgia Unofficial State Flag

(18?? - 1879)

Shortly after the Civil War, an artist reconstructed this scene of Georgia troops in action near Bull Run in July 1861 for the multi-volume series, Battles and Leaders of the Civil War. As shown above, one of the soldiers is holding either a regimental or unofficial state flag with the Georgia coat of arms on a solid field.
