European Vintage Grain Bag, Bearing Owner's Stamp

Five blue pinstripes and a stencilled name that has gone slightly blurry.

This vintage linen grain bag bearing the owner's stamp is ca. 1900. Sacks of this type were frequently sewn from narrow lengths of homespun cloth, and a visible seam running along the center is a common feature. Lofty sack in pale cream with clustered thin blue stripes running its length and one corner folded into a flap. Small black lettering sits near the middle, faded and smudged, and the weave is soft and creased. It is 21.75 inches wide and 46 long.

Pinstriped, a little smudged, and proud of its stripes.
