Double-sided Pane of 20

This stamp commemorates 200th anniversary of Star-Spangled Banner.The stamps image is from a photo of flag that flies over Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine.It was taken during fireworks display at annual Defenders Day celebration.

During the War of 1812, Mary Pickersgill was commissioned to sew a flag so large that the British will have no difficulty seeing it from a distance.The flag was to fly over Baltimores Fort McHenry, which the British hoped to capture.

Pickersgill was asked to make one American ensign, 30x42 feet, first quality bunting.A smaller flag of lighter materials was also ordered for use during bad weather.Over 400 yards of wool bunting was needed to construct the larger flag, which weighed about 50 pounds.Because of its size, the work was done on the floor of a nearby brewery after the business had closed for the day.

The British began bombarding Fort McHenry on September 13, 1814. Francis Scott Key witnessed the 25-hour assault from a ship in Chesapeake Bay.Because it was raining heavily, Key likely saw the smaller flag at twilights last gleaming.But as morning neared, the oversized flag was defiantly hoisted above Fort McHenry.The sight inspired Key to write lyrics about the star-spangled banner.

If not for fate, the Battle of Fort McHenry would have had a more explosive ending.Only the forts commander knew that its gunpowder magazine, over which some 2,000 shells fell, was not bombproof.A direct hit would have destroyed the fort instantly.

Gary Clark was the photographer for the stamps image.He said it was difficult to get the fireworks and the flag at the same time because it was windy the night he took the photo at the Defenders Day celebration.

Very firm to be placed on counter top. Baskets have enough space to store onions, fruits etc. Fair price as well.

Better Have Counter Space
Purchased with the idea to reduce counter clutter and have central location of fruits and vegetables. The idea behind the stacking basket bins is fine, but with limited counter space, it just seems to add to the clutter. I am also only able to use the bottom plate and one basket as stacking height would extend high enough to block cabinet doors. Good idea, but not for those with limited counter space and or lower cabinet clearance. Check measurements and counter space.

Excellent product
I was looking for onion and potato storage and I am very happy to find this. Even though item made with plastic material, it is very sturdy and easy to assemble. I store 3 bags of onions( costco bags) and a potato bag. I have very small and narrow space for onions and potato storage, and this stackable baskets are perfect .

The quality and craftsmanship of this tray are amazing! I bought it mainly for jewelry photography, and the results turned out even better than I expected ✨ The matte finish is exactly what I needed because it doesn’t reflect light, which makes photographing jewelry and pearls so much easier and gives the photos a much more elevated look 📸 I took these photos at night under white lighting, and I’m honestly so happy with how they turned out. The background looks clean, soft, and aesthetic. Sharing some of my photos here for reference — highly recommend!
