Dear Dr. Kavanaugh,

During the research phase of our trading post, I was in contact with
Maureen Dolynuik, Manitoba CHC Archives and Dr. Katherine Pettipas,
curator of Hudson Bay Company Artifact Collection.  Maureen emailed me
scanned copies of samples of stroud cloth/trade cloth dating from 1856.
I think Dr. Pettipas had some more samples of trade cloth in her
collection.  You may want to contact them.  Their email addresses as of
2000 were:

Good luck with your research.

Listeros:

Does anyone have a good source for the dating of wool trade cloth
(stroud), particularly the introduction of the multi-colored selvedges
(not just "wide white saved edge").


Also, a dating for the introduction of colored "fluffy" feathers in
the
Indian trade?

Thanks in Advance.
