Those famous last words were later commemorated by his friend, Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, on his personal battle flag. Featuring that popular naval battle cry in white letters, this screened polyester reproduction of Perry's flag includes a canvas header, reinforced edging and brass grommets. 5'x 3'.
