Learn about conservation of old flags

6th Regiment, N.C. Troops

You may recall a Picket post previewing a live webcast on the conservation of Civil War uniforms from North Carolina.

Next month, North Carolina Museum of History textile conservator Paige Myers will lead another session -- this one on flags. The museum has about 100 Civil War banners.

The webcast is scheduled for 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. ET on Dec. 10.
