About This Design
Betsy Ross, 1777 (American History) (USA Patriot) Card
This design features a painting by American artist Jean Leon Gerome Ferris (1863–1930). It shows the first flag of the United States of America being stitched by Betsy Ross (Elizabeth Griscom Ross), who was an American upholsterer credited with its creation. It is said that General George Washington, commander-in-chief of the Continental Army and two members of a congressional committee (Robert Morris and George Ross) visited Mrs. Ross; she convinced George Washington to change the shape of the stars in a sketch of a flag he showed her from six-pointed to five-pointed by demonstrating that it was easier and speedier to cut the latter. The story may, in fact, be apocryphal, but it has now become a part of American tradition. The "Betsy Ross" flag design, with its easily identifiable circle of stars, is today flown as a symbol of patriotism and pride in American history.

I visited the Watts Gallery earlier this year which was one of our best family days out ever, what a talent Watts was and his wife come to that. The image is perfect for a romantic occasion though I made the mistake of thinking it was a greeting card when in fact it is a postcard - my mistake but easily happens.
Took a little while to print and to be sent from overseas I think. Good quality card and printing.

These cards were beautiful and I had a choice for different people and different ages. Love the Victorian range. Perfect. The print was clear and bold and there was a choice to choose from

The artwork and paper quality are good BUT it is only a card and not a bi-fold blank card as I had expected. It was my mistake as I hadn't noticed when ordering. However I think that a single page card would be be very limiting to send to a 90 year old. The quality was excellent.
