Condition
For it's age in good condition with a good appearance. However when held up to light you will see that towards one end that the fabric is heavier distressed with several small holes and thin areas. with the same in the rest fabric but not as distressed. Good documentation piece or for small projects. The threads are good and strong and color even. No stains. If used for sewing I would recommend stabilizing.
The fabric has been given a cold water wash using those famous Marseille soaps without bleaching agents in order to remove dust and dirt. We like to deliver a clean and pressed product when possible but take care to preserve the integretity and color of the fabric.
