A lot of flags, where made of wool bunting, and you can still get wool bunting for historically made flags, even though it cost about 35.00 a yard. I do not...
David - I just read it again, somewhere on the internet, that the cavalry flags were red, with the coat of arms centered. That infantry were either white, as...
And while you guys are at it...I've noticed the CA reenactors use the red and gold flag of Spain. I thought that was an ensign and didn't become the Spanish ...
I will check a place in San Pedro that sells flags to see if they have the correct flag. If so, I will tell you how much this week. bob smith, los pobladores...

Hola! My purpose in asking the question originally was to see if anyone made a decent copy of the kind of flag Anza carried with him to California. The...
David, Have you checked with Don Garate at Tumacacori Mission? He is the capo de capo of all the Anzoids. He has published the book on Anza the senior and is...
This makes sense. The California presidios probably all flew the naval flag since they were not inland. Remember that except for Santa barbara, the presidios...

This sounds like the coastal flag to me. Foreigners in ships would see this flag. This was also not the ornate or complete royal arms, but a simplified one ...
Hola Carlos, Jack Williams in his critique of my sketches said nothing about the flag but said that I should show the Tubac presidio pennant. Here is what he...
Dave: I am very excited about this painting you are doing. Is there any chance you will do a press run of large format version? I am sure that many Anza party...
Hello Lance, Well, that is not up to me. When I signed the contract, I signed away all my intellectual property rights to the artwork. I'm afraid Uncle Sam...
David: My name is Terri and I am a ranger at Tubac Presidio. It has come to my attention that you are interested in replicating the flag Anza had with him....

Hola, I have pondered this question a good bit lately, because in various regulations for the soldados de cuera, queretaro cloth is used when describing the...
Hello Mike, I'm afraid I don't feel quite comfortable attributing these cavalry standards to 18th century presidial troops. My main concern is the source for...

Hola, I just posted the picture of the guitar player in the Photo section, in a new file "la Musica." It is by Father Ignacio Tirsch, who was in Baja...
David: I am curious about the Tirsch painting. Does Tirsch say that he is playing a guitar. Afte briefly looking at the instrument, I see the S scrolls on...
