AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful flag of Mexico in the classic green-white-red colors with the detailed national emblem in the center. Manufactured in the 70s/80s.
Made of cotton with a nice, clear screen print and an authentic look. The flag has two official “Controle Qualtiss” quality markings, indicating careful production.
The colors are vivid and the iconic design with an eagle and a snake makes this a real eye-catcher.
A special piece of history:
The French Foreign Legion (Legion Étrangère) under the command of Captain Jean Danjou played a crucial, mythical role during the French intervention in Mexico (1863-1867), especially through the legendary Battle of Camarón on April 30, 1863. During this battle, 65 legionnaires fought to the death against an overwhelming force of 2,000 Mexican soldiers, symbolizing the courage and discipline of the Legion.
During the Hacienda Camarón, Captain Jean Danjou lost his wooden hand prosthesis.
Size: 195 x 265 cm
