This is a Rare! Antique German Glass Christmas Ornament – Patriotic Admiral Peary. Figural German Glass Ornament – Admiral Peary holding a Paper American Flag. Admiral Peary in his Polar Expedition Clothing holding a Paper American Flag. Great detailed molding, glittery’snowy’ finish, interior silvering is almost gone, generalized wear as described below. Ornament is 5.5 tall, not counting hook. Wear consistent with age: surface soiling; brown tinged on back of head & side of left boots (possibly this was the original coloring of the hat & boots); wrinkled paper flag (see below); loss of silvering. Guaranteed old & genuine. This ornament has been in our personal collection for 20+ years, when I took it out to list it I realized the ornament was made late 1920’s/early 1930’s but he is holding a flag with 50 stars! – Check our Feedback!
