As much as,Id like to contribute to this posting, all I can say OC is that you have way too much time on your hands. I however do appreciate your postings, always a fascinating read.

It very much looks like the blue is lighter than normal. Note also how still and relatively thick the the cloth appears to be. I wonder if this was some older material or some non-standard issue cloth.

Hah!

It's not the amount of time as much as it is when I have it! Many/most of my postings are in the early morning hours, 3am to 5am, when I can't sleep and the house is quiet and though I would love to practice the bagpipes my family wouldn't appreciate it.
