[b]Help us to Conserve a Space Traveling Flag[/b] Astronaut John Glenn carried this reproduction of General George Washington’s Headquarters Flag (also known as the Commander in Chief's standard) into space as part of the lead up to the 1999 bicentennial commemorations of Washington's death in 1799. To prepare it for long-term display in the Museum, the replica "space flag" needs to be cleaned, mounted, and framed using archival materials to ensure its preservation. Thank you for conserving this historic "space flag" for all Museum visitors to enjoy!
