Please see the listing photos and video for condition.  This blanket is previously owned and shows some minor wear.    Ther are a few small light spots and creases.  The hair pattern changes when it is brushed.  One corner has wear marks and some threads are showing for about 1 1/2 inches.  The back side has several spots that show as light brown.  I do not know if this is fading or wear.  There are a few tiny hairs and spots of lint.   I could not detect any bad odors.  It does small like a horsehair blanket should.  The blanket measures 53.5" x 68.5".  I do not know when it was made, but Strook made this type of blanket in a factory New York from the late 1800s to the 1920s. They were made to keep riders of horse-drawn carriages and later open-air automobiles warm by placing over their laps.  It weighs 8.6 pounds (Heavy!)  The last six photos are of the back side.  Any information about this blanket would be appreciated.  Customer satisfaction is guaranteed.  A full refund is offered if you are not fully satisfied and I will pay the return shipping cost.   Payment due at time of purchase.   I have other blankets for sale.  Shipping cost savings on combined orders.
