I obtained a small quantity of these beautifully made wool blankets from Alang, not realizing until I separated them for cleaning that there is a wide variety of styles, colors, and sizes. These particular blankets have the B&C monogram representing Union-Castle Line's parent company, British and Commonwealth.

The blankets are in quite good condition but some have a small stain or fray that could probably use some gentle attention after their many years of service and existence. I will select what I feel are the ones in best condition to offer first.
