I've had this big old wool blanket for around 30 years. Can anyone tell me about how old it is? is there any value to it? The beauty in the polka dot bikini is lucy - who loves anything fabric to sit on - even prickly wool.

This is a really good one, one of the best I've seen. Definitely has some value
Maybe 1940's or a little later
Yeah its definitely a good one. Most of them aren't worth much but this is a great wall-hanger
very very beautiful!!! and beautiful dog!!!
thank you stillwater and sean68. i really wasn't sure. i've had it so long now. yes, the dog is my sweetheart and constant companion of 7 yrs.
Beautiful!!! Is that "Lucy in the sky with diamonds!!!"
no toracat. that's lucy on the ground with an itchy wool blanket.
thanks bratjdd. lucy is a heartbreaker!
Very nice indeed really great colors!! Love your chihuahua. I have 2 chi's such great companions.
thanks roddyq. i love my chihpin [chihuahua/miniature pinscher].
Very interesting x. I've never heard of a chilpin before. Thanks so much for sharing this ho2cultcha:)
Your blanket depicts the national symbol of Mexico. The bird on the cactus/serpent. The same image is on the Mexican coins. 10 pesos, 5 pesos etc.
which was what was seen by the wandering aztecs as the sign of where to build their great city - which is now the largest city in the world - Mexico City.
So much history for sure Mexico City where in 1520 Montezuma the Aztec Emperor was killed during the initial Spanish conquest led by Cortes.
I live 4 hours South of Mexico City and will not drive in the city, it's just too crazy!!
we have a place 2 hrs northwest of mexico city and i won't drive in DF either. it's insane there!
It's great reading your comments ho2cultcha:) Hasta luego
gracias roddyq! hasta la proxima...
