Oh wow I would not have thought it was that old. That's pretty cool if it is. That's cool. I wish it had a label on it. Now I see the importance of labeling.

The prints are original feedsack prints from the 30s and 40s. The sashing print was sold by the yard in the Sears catalogue in the mid 40s. Very nice find!
