HTF Damaged Barbeque Vintage Tablecloth This great barbeque tablecloth from Startex is pretty hard to find. A sweet pattern that is a little faded from use but still very enjoyable. There are 3-4 rust colored stains that look permanent to me. A couple of other light stains that are really not visible on the table. In mint condition, this tablecloth would be much more expensive. This one comes with some extra history!

Rare Damaged Springmaid Vintage Tablecloth According to Pam Glasell in Collectors Guide to Vintage tablecloths, this tablecloth was given to Springmaid employees as a Christmas present. It is a rare find. Unfortunately this one is damaged. There is a cluster of worn spots. There are several yellow stains which I did not try to remove. I know many of the early Springmaid cloths had fugitive dyes so I was afraid to soak it. Size: 50 X 47 Fabric Content: Lighter weight cotton Dye Condition: Gently faded Holes/Tears: A cluster of worn spots as shown Stains: Several large visible yellow stains

Heavy Linen Pottery MWT Vintage Tablecloth This is probably the heaviest linen cloth I have ever felt. It seems like a burlap weave but lighter than the usual 60s burlap tablecloths. It is a nice cream. The colors are muted and pretty. The label is with the cloth but no longer attached. It is a Victory Hand Prints cloth with the pattern name Still Life. The tablecloth has a slight vinegar smell which might mean that it was stored in a plastic bag that was starting to degrade. I think the smell should dissipate when washed. Size: 70 X 52 (per label) Fabric Content: Heavy weight linen Dye Condition: Good Holes/Tears: None Stains: None

Terry PA Dutch NWT Vintage Tablecloth A great idea for anyone who feeds people who spill. This blue PA dutch themed tablecloth has the original paper label. It is stamped seconds. I looked over the tablecloth and the only thing I can see is a few places where the lines of terry are spaced slightly wider apart. I dont think this will affect wear. It may not even be noticeable once the cloth is washed. Wait! I found a fabric flaw and small stain as shown. Some light storage staining visible outside the pattern. The paper label shows that this is a Simtex Stevens cloth with the pattern name Koffee Klatch. It has reverse printed coffee carafes, plates, cups and strawberries for some reason. It smells a little smokey from being stored somewhere before it came here. Size: 70 X 52 (per label) Fabric Content: Midweight cotton terry Dye Condition: Good with one fabric flaw as shown Holes/Tears: None Stains: One little dark yellow stain as pictured. Some light storage staining outside the printed area that may clean up with a wash

Fun Mexican Serenade MWT Vintage Tablecloth This tablecloth has the original paper label from House Beautiful. I think it is the first time I have seen the label! Although a smaller cloth, it is very bright and very detailed. The artwork is superb! There are a few dirty spots but they are not obvious in the busy pattern. Two small dirty spots in the center area plus some dirt along a fold that runs through the center area. Some light spots near the edges.

Two Color Cottages Vintage Tablecloth This seems like an early cloth, late 30s maybe. A very unusual pattern in two colors of burgundy and green. It has trees and flowers too! This is a lighter weight cotton so handle it gently when wet! This is a scarce pattern, I dont remember seeing another. There are the remnants of some yellow staining that lightened in a soak. They are no longer obvious on the table though so I would probably just leave them be. Size: 48 X 43 Fabric Content: Lighter weight cotton Dye Condition: Good Holes/Tears: None Stains: Some very light yellow staining in the center area

HTF Kitschy Meal Menu Vintage Tablecloth This is another hard to find tablecloth. This is only the second or third I have seen. This may be a Broderie or a Broderie influence from the look of the china. I expecially like the desssert pictures on the tea section. I have a damaged blue linen version of this cloth in my own collection. There is some light yellow staining in the center area. It is visible but not obvious. Size: 47 X 45 Fabric Content: Midweight textured cotton Dye Condition: Good Holes/Tears: None Stains: Several light yellow stains in the center area that did not soak out. They are lightly visible on the table and I would use the cloth regardless. Extra soaking leads to fading in these textured cotton cloths

Arizona Missions Souvenir Vintage Tablecloth This unusual tablecloth has Arizona missions in each corner. They are Tumacacori and San Xavier Del Boc.

There are two very light red dye spots as shown. Size: 48 X 43 Fabric Content: Midweight linen Dye Condition: Gently faded Holes/Tears: None Stains: Two red dye spots as shown

Florida Hotel Souvenir Vintage Tablecloth This tablecloth is a souvenir from Kloeppel hotel chain in Florida. The Kloeppel hotels were high end hotels in West Palm Beach and Jacksonville. The tablecloth is wonderful and stark. From the design, I would suspect an early date, maybe early 1940s. It has three colors and shows fishing, swimming and sailing amongst other activities. There are great palm trees in each corner. I found one light yellow stain but no other damage. I did not try to remove it. Size: 53 X 50 Fabric Content: Midweight cotton Dye Condition: Good Holes/Tears: None Stains: One light yellow stain about an inch by half inch

The red along one side particularly looks like it has bled to nearby fabric. Finally, the left side of the tablecloth seems to be hemmed unevenly.

60s Bermuda Souvenir Vintage Tablecloth A fun collectible for anyone who has been to Bermuda! The colors are bright and it doesnt seem to have been used much. The fabric feels like it might be a treated cotton but I am not sure. There is one very light stain that is only visible when the tablecloth is held to the light. Tablecloths from this regular supplier smell like bleach. Size: 47 X 46 Fabric Content: Midweight treated cotton maybe?

Broderie Early Mexican Vintage Tablecloth I am convinced this is an early Broderie because the face on the lady matches the early version of the maid and scotty tablecloth. Also it is printed on the same lightweight cotton twill as my very rare Broderie duck tablecloth. This tablecloth is very light and should be considered a collector, not a user. It is not perfect. There are a few small light stains that I did not try to remove. There is one worn spot near an edge. Also, when I got the tablecloth I thought I found another small worn spot in one of the corner women but I cant find it again. Size: 55 X 46 Fabric Content: Light weight cotton twill Dye Condition: Gently faded Holes/Tears: One quarter inch worn spot by an edge. May be another smaller worn spot that I cant find but remember seeing before Stains: Several small stains that I did not try to remove

Dancing Peasants Party Vintage Tablecloth I love the colors and bold graphics on this sheeting weight tablecloth. It is an unusual shape so maybe it was intended to be a runner? I would care for it gently because of the lightweight nature of the fabric. It is gently faded and has some light yellow staining in the center which is visible but not obvious on the table.

Red Dutch Kids NWT Vintage Tablecloth I am digging deep into my buckets this week. I have had this pretty primary Startex tablecloth forever! The pattern is very cute. There are three main issues with this tablecloth. First, there are scattered fine dye spatters here and there, particularly around the center. Second, there is a small broken thread in between the center and the outer border. Finally there is widespread light age staining. Size: 52 X 52 (per label) Fabric Content: Midweight cotton Dye Condition: Good with scattered tiny dye spots. Dense close to the center area Holes/Tears: One broken thread as pictured Stains: Widespread light age staining

The red is bright but not glowing as my flash made the corner picture look. There is one small gray mark in the center area. As well, the fabric has thin faults here and there. One is pictured.

Styles Hotels Advertising Vintage Tablecloth This tablecloth appears to be either an advertisement or a souvenir for the Styles Hotel chain. The company was owned by Clifford Styles and I read that it is believed that Mr Styles still haunts the Redmont Hotel in Birmingham Alabama. Other hotels are pictured from Florida, South Carolina and Georgia. There is one two inch yellow spot out in the border and an inch long pen mark outside the border. There is a very light yellow stain behind the Hotel Georgian that is very hard to see on the table. Size: 53 X 49 Fabric Content: Midweight cotton Dye Condition: Good Holes/Tears: None Stains: One penmark outside the border and a two inch stain in the border.

Linen Chess Set Vintage Tablecloth This wonderful tablecloth has a bright diamond shaped background with chess pieces in black. It is somewhat faded but very cute and has lots of life left. I have never had this pattern before and really like it. It is slightly more faded than it looks in the pictures. There is one smaller than dime sized yellow spot which did not come out when I soaked the tablecloth. I think its probably permanent. There is a smaller dark spot and one tiny worn spot.

Fine Food Linen Vintage Tablecloth I dont think this tablecloth has been washed but it may have been used. The colors are bright and beautiful with mostly pink, celery green and tan. This is one of my favorite prints and I have it in my personal collection (this one is nicer though). When the tablecloth is folded you can see some minor variation in edge color but that is not obvious on the table. There are a couple of pen marks near a selvedge. They are outside the print so hopefully wont cause a problem. Between the inner and outer border there is a quarter inch cream spot that looks like paint. I included pictures of three other marks that are very light. One gray smudge and a couple of very light marks the same color as the paint.

Goodchild Cowboy MWT Napkins Vintage Tablecloth I have held onto this tablecloth for a while because I dont know anything about it. It is signed Goodchild and the label says it is hand printed in California. There is a Goodchild Ranch in Santa Barbara but I dont know if this tablecloth came from there. It feels like Cactus Cloth. There are four matching napkins. There is one light gray smudgy mark on the tablecloth as pictured.

Burgundy Gray Feathers Vintage Tablecloth This unusual print is a heavy rayon tablecloth. Very drapey. It has big gray feathers on a blue gray and burgundy background. The colors are deep and color retention is a hallmark of these rayon cloths. The downside to rayon is that it needs very gentle care with no Oxy. It is especially fragile when wet. There are a few small light yellow stains that are hard to see in the pattern so I left them alone.

Broderie Couples Courting Vintage Tablecloth Hmm. I keep buying this tablecloth because I like it! It has couples in Gay 90s clothes rollerskating and riding in carriages. I like to think of them courting, although if they were courting in 1890, they probably wouldnt be alone. The color combination is unusual with yellow, brown and jadite green. I found a few tiny spots but nothing obvious at all.

Unusual Two Color Mexican Vintage Tablecloth I don't usually buy a lot of Mexican cloths but I just loved this one. From the simple two color design, I would suspect a late 30s, early 40s date. The fabric is a lighterweight cotton but heavier than sheeting. The pattern is gently faded and there are some light stains as described below.

Rare Leacock Whimsical NWT Vintage Tablecloth This is the only tablecloth I have ever seen in this pattern. The pattern name is Crinoline and it is similar to the Hearts and Flowers pattern with the boy and girl in love. Here there are people out for their daily consitutional. The most unusual thing about this pattern is that it is almost abstract. It almost looks like a color is missing from the design but I dont think there is. This tablecloth is printed on sheeting weight cotton. That may be why it is rare. The pattern is clustered in the center which is really unusual. The downside is that there is fairly extensive storage staining in one quarter of the tablecloth.

Bright Unused Mexican Vintage Tablecloth I'm not sure what the fabric is of this tablecloth. It might be an unbleached linen. I dont think its a cactus cloth because those look different when theyre unwashed. The primary colors are bright and I dont think it has been used or washed. There are a few tiny stray dye spots that do not detract. Theyre common on these earlier hand printed tablecloths. There are a couple of little marks in the corner as pictured.

Old Virginia State Souvenir Vintage Tablecloth Another in my drive to clear out my stash. This linen tablecloth has old houses and magnolia blossoms on gray linen. The magnolia is weird because the state flower and tree are dogwood. Some poetic licence I guess. The cloth is not perfect. It has a few small rust colored stains. It also has a few light areas of pink dye transfer which are visible on the table. I did not try to remove them. Often when I do something like that, I end up completely ruining the tablecloth.

Bright Gay 90s Kasha NWT Vintage Tablecloth This is perhaps the favorite Simtex Kasha Cloth tablecloth. It is called Gay 90s and has men and women talking on the phone, playing croquet and out for a drive. The colors are nice and bright and printed on the gray kasha cloth. Simtex designed the kasha cloth fabric to copy actual kasha which is a variegated flannel. The only problem is some light yellow staining to the folds which is visible when the tablecloth is held to the light. I also found one quarter inch tan spot when folding the tablecloth. I love the dog!

Southern Belle at the Well Vintage Tablecloth This looks like a hand printed 1930s tablecloth to me with the simple two color design. There are a couple of places where the printing is imperfect, owing to the nature of hand printing. I soaked this cloth and now it is clean. The only defects I can find is that a couple of the corners are undone about a quarter to a third of an inch. Plus there are a couple of tiny rust colored spots.

Hawaii Pre-Statehood Coat of Arms Vintage Tablecloth? I don't really know much about this. This tablecloth depicts the coat of arms of Hawaii prior to it becoming a state. Even the fabric is unusual. It feels sort of like burlap or unbleached linen on top but the underneath is fluffy and soft. I don't think this cloth has ever been washed and there is some age staining. I wonder if it might be a cloth for a podium? Somebody said a banner, but there's not sleeve for a hanger. Someone else suggested a funeral cloth? There is some age staining but since I don't think this has been washed, I didn't wash it. There is also a light line that looks like dye but its not very obvious.

It has great flower bowls around the inner border and people and burros around the outer border. I soaked the tablecloth because it had a cluster of light yellow stains as shown in a picture. They did not come out. There are also a few fluffy blue bits stuck to the cloth that come off when you scrape them. I've noticed this before on other tablecloths that have been mangle pressed. I don't know why it happens.
