currently available Federal blankets

[Bill Cross]

Some boys have asked about a group buy for Bummers of Federal blankets for an issue, and I would like to know what reputable and authentic vendors currently have them available, or could do a run in time for November?

I have all the blankies I need, and have not kept current on who is making them. County Cloth, for example, currently has only the cavalry blanket.

Bill,

On the authentic side of blankets, I'd go with a S***** or a Keagy-Noble.

Thanks, Matt. The ************ blankie is $105 and 5 pounds (very comfortable in cold weather), but I could find no pricing or weight on the K-N website. Anyone who has information can either PM or post here.

Bill,

The Keagy Noble blankets vary a little by run. I've handled a few and recall them to be more in the 3.5 to 4 lb range. They are a little softer to the touch but have a correct selvage. Prices have gone up to about $125 average of late.

Thanks, Matt. I will see how many fellers might want blankies.

Just so you know, the S****** blanket is out of stock until August. I asked just the other day.

Yes, Nick emailed me that information. Not sure if he's interested in taking a bulk order, as we don't need the blankies until late October as I live just down the road from his store and atelier.
