Up for sale or purchase is an incredibly rare, museum-quality piece of American textile and retail history. This vintage Churchill Weavers handwoven baby blanket is completely unused, unwashed, and remains preserved inside its original factory plastic packaging.
This is not a standard factory run; it features the highly coveted cursive \"Small World / B. Altman & Co.\" boutique label. B. Altman & Co. was a legendary luxury department store on Fifth Avenue in New York City. During the mid-century era, they partnered with Churchill Weavers to create ultra-premium nursery pieces for their elite clientele.
Features a delicate, meticulously hand-stitched pink rosebud with green satin-stitch leaves at the center, completed by local Kentucky artisans. Woven on Churchill’s famous historic looms in Berea, Kentucky, using premium 100% Orlon Acrylic—celebrated for its incredible softness, lightweight warmth, and resistance to shrinking. Features the signature Churchill handwoven loop fringe along the edges, entirely intact.
Pristine New Old Stock: The blanket has never been used, handled, or exposed to the elements. Comes inside the original clear plastic bag. Includes the sewn-in \"Churchill Handwoven\" tag, the \"100% Orlon Acrylic\" content tag, and the rare \"Small World B. Altman & Co.\" store tag.
As with all true deadstock textiles stored for decades, there may be minor storage scent or light settling dust along the fold lines, which is standard for items preserved in original plastic packaging for 40+ years.
The blanket will be securely packed in a sturdy box (never a poly-mailer) to protect the vintage plastic packaging and ensure it arrives at your doorstep in its exact current condition. Ships quickly with tracking.
