I acquired the set and will be selling them off individually. They are all original watercolors on board and are in varying condition and the time frame they were done was the 1920\'s to the 1940\'s and the dates are in the corners with the sign off of therelevant officer of the quartermaster general\'s office. These are one of a kind design proofs for the State Guard unit crests and are extremely well done and executed. I do not know who this artist is, but it would be interesting to understand how the US Government, or various States, went about selecting artists and having these drawings done during this period. This design was approved by theQuartermaster\'sdepartment on 06/28/23 and this is a revision of 10/1927 and this was handpainted by the Army on August 9, 1957. It is in good condition with wear to the corners. The size is about 8\" x 10\". This is a hand painted original Connecticut National Guard and US governmental archival document from 1957 and a very rare item.

I charge GA sales tax to GA residents. I specialize in paper, photos, coins and militaria. I sell about anything except reproductions. If it is not old, I say so. If there is a defect, I also say so. If you know more than me about something, that is OK, as I do not mind learning or being told that I am wrong and strive for accuracy. You can always learn more in this business. If I make a mistake, and we all do, I will take responsibility for it and you can return the item.
