U.S.S. Arizona Memorial Flag
A memorial flag honoring the U.S.S. Arizona, preserved in the personal estate of Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn.
Description
This U.S.S. Arizona Memorial flag comes directly from the estate of Tony Gwynn. Issued in remembrance of those lost aboard the U.S.S. Arizona during the attack on Pearl Harbor, it represents a solemn tribute to one of the most significant moments in American military history.
While there is no known direct connection between Gwynn and the memorial itself, the flag was retained among his personal possessions, suggesting it held some level of personal or symbolic value. As such, it stands as a meaningful historical artifact with provenance to one of baseball’s most respected figures.
Whether viewed as a patriotic keepsake or as part of a larger collection of Gwynn-owned memorabilia, this item offers collectors a rare opportunity to own a piece tied to both national remembrance and an iconic sports legacy.
Dimensions: 7" x 14" x 2.5"
All dimensions are approximate.
