Wool Blanket
Own a piece of Fort Union history! We are switching up the trade house inventory, opting to save undamaged blankets before they're ruined by time, elements, and pests. Each blanket has served in the trade room display, and has now been pulled, had its condition assessed, and dry cleaned in preparation for a new life.
Blankets vary in size, so be sure to read the descriptions below to select the right blanket for you. Most of the blankets are one-of-a-kind. More will be available soon.
All blankets listed are 100% wool and have been examined to ensure they are free of holes and other damage.
Descriptions:
Blue woolrich: these are thin, wrapper-style blankets, twin-sized (60x80). Ideal for a lightweight cover or making into period-appropriate apparel, such as leggings or pants.
Green/Black stripe: large, possibly queen-sized. Medium thickness. No point markings. Partial tag may say "Pearce", from Pearce-Woolrich mills.
