Title: re:point blanket

re: re-sending with pic.     
I just brought home from mom's place a Hudson Bay Point Blanket. Blanket has evidence that a tag was once attached to the center of one of the ends.  Background is that I remember this blanket being used in the car in the early 60's and how fussy Mom got when one of Dad's pipe ashes landed on the blanket and left a small hole.  Other background is that my Grandmother worked in logging camps as a cook in the early 1900's. Also, Minnesota Woolen Mills used to have a home sales service in the early 60's in our town of Ione, WA.  I remember the sales person coming the house with Dad's workwear. The twist to this blanket is that it does not have 'Points'.  Why?  Where is this blanket from?
