ARTIFACT: This is a large and colorful souvenir pillowcase from Camp Tobey for the United States Army 197th Coast Artillery Regiment (Anti-Aircraft), a part of the New Hampshire National Guard. The regiment's coat of arms is in the top corner and reads A BAS L'AVION (down with the plane). Camp Tobey is an unknown camp, most likely in New Hampshire for a short time. The border is pleated and the felt letters have been shaded to give a burnished look.

VINTAGE: Circa 1929.

SIZE: Approximately 23-1/4" by 23" (not including foam board).

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Felt (some painted) on felt, embroidered in cotton/silk threads.

ATTACHMENT: None.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This pillowcase will be shipped unwrapped and folded without the foam board, unless arrangements are made for pick-up or special shipping to preserve the shrink wrap mounting. This is from a United States Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. Ebay VCJX97 LABJX11/11 SAJJX12/14

CONDITION: 7- (Very Fine): The pillowcase shows little wear or fading with a few very small moth holes and one small piece missing from the border.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
