This rare 1960s fabric flour sack once held 25 pounds of Bannock Chief Flour from the Colorado Milling & Elevator Co. of Denver. The center graphic is the head of an Indian in full feathered headdress, 8 inches diameter. The 24 by 12 inch cotton sack is complete and uncut with stitching intact. Part of the heavy cord pull string is still in place at one upper corner, which is the source of the puckering. The flour sack has a faint red striped pattern and a stamped $4.03 grocery price mark near the bottom. The colors are faded - it has been washed but the wonderful Bannock Chief logo is still very presentable. There are no tears or holes. The plain striped back of the bag has a number of tiny dark pindot spots or freckling but there are no stains or spots to the front of the bag. The color intensity and hues are accurate on my monitor but of course what you see may be different.  Very pretty vintage Quaker lace tablecloth. Has cloth tag: Quaker Lace Cloth. It is 80 long x 66 wide. It can be made larger by using heavy starch and hot iron. It has been washed and lightly ironed. I noticed one tiny faded yellow spot on it; see pic #4. That can likely be soaked out with Lestoil or color safe bleach. This tablecloth is a light ivory color, (not white). Very nice for a dining room table. 1/12brestcs  Very attractive vintage tablecloth. Red needlework. It is 31 x 31 inches. Strong heavy material; not sure if this is linen, cotton? No spots or tears. Perfect for a card table, or drape on an angle over a small round table, etc. Not sure if the red stitching is color fast or not, so I'd recommend dry cleaning only when needed. 11/11scsr  Set of 9 vintage molded heavy plastic drapery screw-in Tie Back pins. Each is a large ivory rose with gold highlights between its petals. Condition: excellent. Size: 2 in. dia.
