BlanketX763

This blanket design is red, white and blue checks. The yarn is commercial sheep wool. On July 12, 1911 Newcombe purchased a blanket for twelve dollars from the wife of old Chief Billy Sepass of Skowkale. Its description -red,white and blue checks - matches this example. It was stored for many years in the Museum's Navajo blanket collection and was unlabeled. Culin states that the blanket from Necombe was made from goat hair, commonly used along with the hair of a specially bred white dog and sheeps wool. However this one is commercial sheep's wool.
