Description

Vol 1 P. 240B Letter from Herman Schweizer to Harry George discussing the blanket Harry George sent, noting its tribal affiliation, date it was made, and how much it would be worth to him. Dear Mr. George: I am in receipt of your kind favor of the 20th, also the blanket has been received and I have examined same. For your information, itis not a Zuni blanket; it is a Navajo blanket made about seventeen years ago of a certain kind of yarn which was in vogue for a while at that time. The blanket has been used on the floor and worn smooth. It is more or less interesting as there were not that many of these made , but has no value ethologically at all. It would not be worth $35. or $40. to us. Yours truly,
