Commodore Perry Flag

During the War of 1812, this flag flew aboard Oliver Hazard Perry's flagship "Lawrence" while commanding an American squadron in the Battle of Lake Erie on September 10, 1813. Perry had named his ship after Captain James Lawrence, the hero of an earlier sea battle off New England whose dying words were "Don't Give Up The Ship." These classic 3' X 5' Commodore Perry "Don't Give Up The Ship" flags are made of heavyweight nylon, specially treated to reduce sun and chemical deterioration, and are finished with strong canvas headings and large brass grommets.
