Bullion Swallow Tail In Red Pics

Wanted to ask if anyone had a guaranteed original photo of a Army Bullion Swallow Tail pennant. I've searched for awhile to find one on the internet but no luck.

Thanks
Nicholas

This appears to be a perfectly original "Desk stand Swallowtail Artillery flag" .... printed, cheap quality..... but not full size and nothing like the quality of a real "regimental/Batt'l" Standart.... I've seen/handled several differant similiar "desk" flags over the years... as close as most will ever get to the "full size" version...

I think I'm going to try and purchase this one.... I found the picture in an upcoming auction. What's a safe price range for this penant.

Thanks
Nick
