I remember watching a documentary about US cotton (grown, ginnned, milled & dyed) and how when mills & dyers were closing in the 70's and 80's -- a combination of globalization and lower overall demand for cotton in the US due to synthetic fabrics -- there were a couple of companies up in Glenridge, NJ that hung on longer than most. I think it was on YouTube somewhere but I wouldn't swear to that (it was professionally made). They showed that exact logo in the movie.

Glenridge has a long history of wool & cotton milling and dyeing. I think you both definitely hit the jackpot with that fabric. http://www.glenridgehistory.org/the-mills/
