Imagine my delight when I received an email from the archivist at Liberty's of London. I had blogged about this scarf some time in October. Anna Buruma informed me it was from 1968.... Thank you Anna, sounds as if you have an enviable job.
| 1968 Wonder what the date is on this one with a Canadian theme. Most likely a royal visit year. Could be 1959, 67, 70, 71. My money is on 1967, Centennial year. |
However, this one presents a problem for me. A rather Moorish design, with an old label rather than an imprint......early-mid 50s perhaps?.
How exciting to know that Liberty is 'watching' you! Good luck with finidng out about the last scarf :D
ReplyDeleteGreat to know when your scarf was issued. Love them all!

Liberty, wow,what a lovely surprise for you, also ref to your thoughts re the Canadian scarf ~ I was still living in Canada in the 60's and as per all the schoolchildren across Canada we took a part in the country wide celebrations for the Centennial in 1967, I wonder if it is that which the scarf is commemerating?
ReplyDeleteI think I would like Anna's job. No real surprise that she is keeping a keen eye on your covetable collections!
ReplyDeleteI love the Royal scarf....and I laughed about the car too...only because I had nowhere urgent to go though!
