Thanks...I did know this, but used the popular terminology hoping if anyone had any information, they would know that term. I have not found modern references to them as this, other than what you have said, but have found a number of period references to "miniature" or "little" flags, and the use.....as sales items in Sanitary Fairs and SAS fairs, as keepsakes, etc.
I will move the discussion over to the Flags list.
Thank you.
