more photos of this product below
Lot of 1940s vintage all cotton fabric, about 5 1/2 yards altogether of
34" - 36" wide fabric. There's some red polka dots on white, a shirting
with design in red, some really lovely all cotton gingham check in blue
and white.
This fabric is out of a whole cellar full of beautiful old textiles we
purchased recently... including some very unusual and hard to find
fabrics. This was stored away since around WWII, untouched since the
1940s.
Most of this material does have age related foxing (it was carefully
stored, wrapped in paper or tissue, which no one expected at that time
to lead to foxing later!). There's discoloration to edges and outer
folds and fold lines on this fabric.
It's never been laundered, and we haven't washed or soaked it. It might
clean up with a good wash, but we'll leave that up to you!
