Hello,

I’m trying to locate information on this tapestry of Admiral Dewey of the Maine Battleship.  It is 58″ wide x 59″ tall (includes fringe).  It belonged to my Aunt who lived in New Hampshire.

For some reason, I’m unable to embed images into this post.  You can copy a link and paste it into the address bar of a new browser page and you will be able to see the image.  If anyone knows how I can include the images within the post so you are not inconvenienced by copying and pasting each link please let me know.

I would love to know any of the history, the time frame it was made, and an approximate value based on its condition, and what is the recommended way to store this so it survives.

Grateful for you and any feedback you may have to offer.

Many thanks!

Close to yours ! Price depends on condition of course ! I would see someone who knows textiles as to its preservation ! A museum in your area may know a curator !
