    Description

    FOR SALE IS A RUG THAT I HOOKED.  THIS ADAPTATION WAS TAKEN FROM A WATERCOLOR DRAWING (CA. 1795-1800) BY FRACTUR ARTIST JOHN CONRAD GILBERT (1734-1812).  THIS IS BELIEVED TO BE THE EARLIEST KNOWN PORTRAYL IN AMERICAN ART OF THE MYTHICAL "EASTER RABBIT".  JOHN CONRAD WAS FROM BERKS COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA. THE RUG MEASURES 27" X 22".  I HOOKED IT AND PUT IT IN MY CUPBOARD OF RUGS THAT I HAVE MADE.  IT HAS NEVER BEEN USED. NO RETURNS AND NO SALES OUTSIDE THE CONTINENTAL U.S.
