History / Old Polish Flag [17]

Was this ever resolved?
I have the same flag, but in much worse condition. I will try to get a picture.
I assume the background was originally red, but has faded to the same color in this flag pictured in this article. Also, the brown details on my flag are all but faded away, barely even to be seen. I haven't lookd at this flag in a very long time as I am almost afraid to touch it. It is very fragile.

I was always curious of its origin and coudl never find any images of it on any Polish sites.
My question:
Is this a real flag or home made? The flag has the Eagle sewn on it and it has the canvas? white strip along the edge where the two groumets are.

I see that you guys think it is form the Polish Uprising... the one in the 1800's or 1900's?
Does it have any value? Should I donate it to a museum? etc...
I am technically 2 generation American. My grandfather came over. I do not believe thsi flag to be ours or brought by my family, but rather aquired by my father from another Pole from the old neighborhood.

Thanks,
Dan

Our American name is Murawski, but when some of my family went back to Poland, the name was spelled differently. I wa ssurprised, but not so much as Elis Island did that a lot to immigrants.
