My mother just sent me my Grandfather's flag from the burial.
He was buried in 1952 and Alaska, Hawaii became states in 1958.
I am going to get it cleaned and then mount it in a flag case and proudly hang it on my wall.

You have a wonderful gift and a great piece of history.  No offense, but above all, please read what the rules of "Flag Etiquette" are.

I know what the rules are. we laid it out for inspection purposes to see if there was any rot. It was found in my late-uncle's closet balled up in a garbage bag.

The colors are bright and there is no yellowing on the white stars or stripes.

It is currently folded proper and is being kept in a box until I get a nice case for it.
