16-1287: yellows and browns (7C12, 11K6, and 14F6)

One three-color specimen in the 4- lot (pl. 6,f) has a number of

well-preserved portions. The weaving proper is natural-color white

cotton with plaiding in dark brown (15C12) and gray similar to adobe

(14D7). The wide edge stripe has the same dark brown, a lighter, more

golden brown (14D12), and central pinkish stripes which approximate

printed samples 3C10 or 3C11.
