Can anyone help me on this label?

F & G Field and Gear Home Collection. Marshall Fields made it. I know they have closed but don't know if it's vintage. Any help is appreciated. It is for a chenille duvet cover. I'm sorry I know you don't usually do home goods but I can't seem to find answer anywhere else.

1) Can you post a picture of the entire FG label, so we can see the top?
2) Is there anything on the back of that label?
3) How do you know it was from Marshall Field?
4) It is very lovely!

There is no need to post a photo of the whole label now as I found a photo of it online. The reason I asked for that is because I was not finding anything under "Field and Gear" as you posted in your original query, and there didn't appear to be enough room at the top of the label for an "and" or a "&" between "Field" and the word "Gear" I assumed was there. When I searched on "Field Gear," however, I found original ads for the line in a Chicago newspaper. Searches are pretty precise, so be sure you are reading the label exactly as printed.

I only looked quickly, as I have to leave, but the ads were from 1981-1988. There may be earlier or later ads.

Could you tell me how to search news ads? Do you have a link? Thanks...

The newspapers are subscription databases, for which I pay an annual fee. If you still want to know where they can be found, send me a message (click on my name, then click on Start a Conversation) and I will give you additional information.

So funny thing. I came across another Field & Gear. Same exact tag, just two days ago and with it was another tag. Tag stated Made in USA. That is what I was basically trying to figure if it was made here in the States or somewhere else. Cleared it up a bit.
