First Rug on the Last Page: Currier and Ives Winter Farm Scene

I bought this pattern at a thrift store in New Hampshire for seven dollars. At the time, I didn’t even know what it was. I used to rent space in an antiques shop, and I figured I would research it and then sell it. I was attracted to the winter scene, as I have always loved the snow. The woman’s fur hand muff reminds me of one I had as a child.
