[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 9989495, member: 649"]Just to second everything that [USER=5398]@Joan[/USER] said! Marghab is the real treasure to find among vintage linens but can be difficult and time-consuming to identify with confidence unless one has handled/seen a lot of it... which I have not been lucky enough to do! It's worth significantly more than most other vintage linens. Other than than, vintage linens is a comparatively small collecting niche and there's not a lot of money in it. OP's idea of selling in lots, with low-ish expectations, is fine. The Marghab identification site that I used to use is now sadly broken: [URL]https://www.antique-linens.com/MarghabPatterns.html[/URL] (linking it in case it ever comes back).[/QUOTE]
