Fort Sumter Pins and Buttons
Main Tag:
Description: Patriotic design commemorates the opening salvo of the Civil War, a 36 hour bombardment of still uncompleted Ft. Sumter in Charleston Bay SC. Thirty Three stars and 13 stripes represents the original colonies and the 33 states that existed in 1861. This prophetic positioning of stars seems to represent the clash of forces from Left to Right which was about to start a 4-year battle including 750,000 casualties. And so it began.
