Porcelain American Flag Shield

[WinstonNorth]

I haven't been able to find its like using google, so this one is a mystery to me. Anyone know what this is and possible value? It's 5 inches wide and 6 inches tall.

Thank you very much for your time.

How did you come across the piece of Americana ??

It was in the basement of my father's childhood home in Waltham, Massachusetts.

I am not sure it is this old and no,, way to know what it was attached to other than whatever it was,, it was flat, but this may give you an idea of what it might bring !!  You could also check World Fair collectables !!

Thank you, Mart! I'll start looking at centennial items for more clues.

Appreciate it!

It would look very nice framed !!  Good find !!  Look further in the basement,, may be other good finds !!
