Linda, Can you give us a close up of the actual label.

What an interesting design!

Looking at Newspaper Archive the majority of ads for Peter Freund sweaters are late 50's, early 60's. They all seem to be sweaters for women.

In a different database I found a broader scope than Amanda's finds. I saw references to Peter Freund sweaters from ca. 1917 to 1976 and ads that touted "Sweaters for the whole family."

So, are those oil rigs?

It's unusual, that's for sure. I saw an oil rig on first glance but wondered about what was on the sides too. It looks older to me though as in 50s, that's why I wanted a closer look at the label. It certainly is nifty and a great addition to your collection.

This might be a crazy guess, but could it possibly be Grauman's Chinese Theater in LA? On opening night of a film, with moving spotlights and the cityscape or Hollywood Blvd. silhouetted underneath?
