old cotton farmhouse kitchen stairs rug, long stair runner, vintage 1940s

Vintage cotton rag rug runner from an farm estate here in rural Wisconsin. This is a back stairs rug, a poor man's carpet for stairwell steps or hall. It's 34" wide x 190" long (15 feet + end to end). This one is in poor condition, connecting threads broken between the rag strips, leaving loose open 'holes'. You'll need to repair it before use (or cut this down into smaller rugs). It's a little dirty from use, but odor free, without serious spotting.
