    Hi ! I would like to know the name of the company that made this blanket, identify its origins. I am also interested to know if the company is still in business.
    I love this blanket because it existed before I was born! and I slept under it when I was a kid. My mom gave it to me recently when I visited her in Lebanon. I live in California. She told me that she bought it from a friend's husband who used to travel abroad. The blanket has nothing except that logo of a red turkey inside a circle or oval. Thank you

      Just looking at design - to me - looks around 1970's era. Were you born around that time?

      @antiquerose: Yes, I was born in 1979. My mom had it at about 4 years before I was born. Thank you

      Oh that is Great I got it Spot on ....

      ~ I think was referred to as a " Blanket Throw, or a Throw Blanket ". Is there a Design on the other side or not? Is it wool, or Plush Acrylic Plush throw blanket?

      *Flower Power* was all the Rage in design and Patterns back then....LOL,,...as that is what is was called.
