    Congratulations on your move, Linda. You always seem to find the best space age articles, and both prints are adorable! Are you moving to another farm?

    Sounds exciting Linda - - I bet it's going to be fun decorating. That amoebic type print is equally fabulous. I do have barkcloth, but not with me -- I'll write myself a note to go get them.

    I have two large curtain panels and I keep trying to find a place in my house for them. I just love the colors!

    I just got a pair of these this past Saturday at a local antique show. The dealer told me she had 4 panels, but sold a pair of them to someone earlier, so I only got two, which I can't use. If there were 4 I would have kept them! Regardless, they are amazing and I will be reselling them - in fact I am about to list them today.

    Jonathan those curtains are great! Bit of a bayeaux tapestry feel to them. What era is the print depicting?

  9. Linda, I love that space ship print!
    Not so long ago, I happened across a 15 yard bolt of this and sold it by the yard for a nice profit:

    Love the room Linda.

    Mine has a name Northcliffe on it. One long window panel. I was going to use it for a vanity seat but cannot bring myself to cut it up.
    I will list it soon. That fabric is sturdy stuff.
    1940s? 50s?

    Here is one with a jambalaya recipe running through it....politically incorrect but a
    charming print.

    I was quite surprised to see how much barkcloth has risen since I looked last. Wow. Really.
    I think you got a great deal Linda from what I see.

    I just sold four curtains in this pattern a few months ago but I still have five more panels that I haven't let go of yet.

    The TV lamps is fun (there's a museum for TV lamps in Minnesota). A while back I found nine pillow shams which I sold.

    If we're sharing TV lamps, I have one to post - I bought it just a few months ago.

    It's one of my favorite colors. And who could resist poodles?
