c. 1829, Historic Printed Textile, titled, "LES PRESIDENTS DES ETATS-UNIS," French, Blue Print on White Cotton, type not listed in "Threads of History," measuring 25.25" x 14", About Very Fine. Original printed Historical textile is very similar in style to "Threads of History" listed item Number 70, as found on page 78. Unlike that image, this is printed in blue on white cotton, displaying Portraits of the first Six United States Presidents, including: Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and John Quincy Adams in the fields. There is a central image of an American Heraldic Eagle with the legend below in French "LES PRESIDENTS DES ETATS-UNIS," which complete the tapestry. There is some wrinkling with some fabric splits along the far left with a 1" hole in the field, away from any image and is overall very nice. A collector's item type that is not listed in "Threads of History." Very nice to frame and display.
