Noted vintage textile collector and author Pamela Glasell has featured our tablecloth in two books of her books, Collectors' Guide to: Vintage Souvenir Tablecloths & Linens and also Collector's Guide to Vintage Tablecloths. How does one know that this is a vintage 1930s R A McFarland California Tablecloth for sure? Ms Glasell explains in her book that a true 1930s tablecloth has some unique features not found on any other California R A McFarland tablecloth, notably the notation of General Grant National Park. "This rare tablecloth produced only for a few years between 1934-1939. Depicts unusual reference to "General Grant National Park."
