as pictured--super minor

which were extremely territorial and fiercely protective of one another

I love photographing these in different arrangements

I have found one other similar pair online dated to the 1920s

Woman with American Flag Holding A Second Small Flag with Star (?), Striking Early Snapshot ornament mold with these wonderfully largeThis woman, with what looks to me like an American flag draped over one shoulder and down her front, is holding up something in her hands, which looks to be another small flag of some sort, with what looks to be a star at its center. I haven't done research to try to figure it out, but might guess she has lost a husband or son in war. A small photo, but I think a very striking one. 3 3 8" x 2 1 2", very good antique condition. Early 20th c. I believe.
