Description

White cotton towel-sized piece of material that has a hem with buttonholes and an embroidered "Burlington Trailways" along one of the short ends. Burlington Trailways was started in 1929, and ran buses. This item was likely used to cover the headrests of the passenger seats as an item like this would have been easier to clean than the seat itself. The seat cover measures 14.5" (w).
