Pullman Blanket and something else...
Posted by Anonymous on Sunday, July 22, 2007 3:57 PM

my mother bought a blanket yesterday that said pullman on it and didn't think much of it, expect that it was old. well I went online and found out exactly what pullman was. the blanket we got looks just like the one on this site http://www.victoriantradingco.com/store/catalogimages/cl/cl271.jpg . the difference is, ours has a 14 on it and is far far more faded in color then this one. we also got what looks like a head rest cover or a napkin that's white and across the middle, in a blue embrordered background with white lettering it says "The Pullman Co. 1936".

we where wondering what the potential value was of these pieces?

I would check around on eBay and see what the going rate is.
