otter42 Posted June 6 Share #1 Posted June 6 Bought this yesterday and wondered about the color. Looks like same color as WWII USMC uniforms. But maybe it's foreign, any help would be great. No tags left. Thanks Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave T Posted June 6 Share #2 Posted June 6 Looks like a good USMC blanket. Is it USMC stitched or blank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otter42 Posted June 7 Author Share #3 Posted June 7 Couldn't find any tags or stitching. Is this WWII or earlier? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted June 7 Share #4 Posted June 7 I would say WW2 era. The WW1 era blankets have a very different chainstitch USMC and wool color is different.. Early or pre WW2 chainstitch is often seen and a block stitch also. Sometime during WW2 the USMC stitched letters were dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
