Vintage Light Blue Stripe Ticking A – Ragtime Blues – SAL 2024

Description

Vintage Light Blue Stripe Ticking A – perfect for our Ragtime Blues OPA SAL 2024

This listing is for the whole piece of 2 yards as it has a few issues as pictured.
The original width of fabric was 30″ selvedge to selvedge….this piece is missing one selvedge and is 29″ wide.
See ‘Vintage Light Blue Ticking B’ for the second piece with both selvedges.

I’m not sure whether the stains on this mattress were from childbirth or homicide lol!
They may well bleach out.

I purchased many boxes of genuine tickings from the USA during 2001.
Most were actual mattress ticks where the seller emptied out the feathers before shipping them to me overseas.

I have laundered and pressed all the fabric using a low allergenic washing powder.
I removed most if not all of the feather fragments as was possible.
Note some tiny feather remnants may remain if that’s an issue to you.

There are stains and holes noted here and there but at the same time plenty of usable fabric remains.
Etsy is also a great resource for vintage striped ticking……mind you some of the prices are a little😲
