Circa 1914 Hand-Made Folk Art Quilt with B18 Baseball Blankets

Circa 1914 Hand-Made Folk Art Quilt with B18 Baseball Blankets

This wonderful quilt from the dawn of the 20th Century was obviously well made with care. Its' use of tobacco premium "blankets" helps us to date it to around 1914. Tobacco companies use of "blanket" premiums may be a little puzzling to those that are a little newer to the hobby but one look at this quilt and their place in our history becomes pretty clear. Of particular note is the use of the B18 Baseball blankets in this quilt, running right down the middle and set diagonally to the other blanket premiums on the quilt which include Flags, Indian rug designs, and even a butterfly. Of the 11 B18 blankets there are no players of particular note but they look great in this nice, high quality quilt that remains in Excellent condition.
