Kitchen and Dish Towels

1980? French kitchen towel.  TH.  18½" x 27".  Cotton.  Where and when?

This is one of the less flattering portraits of La Fontaine, I would say.  The bright yellow is attractive, but there is not much spirit in this design. 

 

1990? French dish towel featuring five fables: MM; 2P; WL; FG; and OF.  $17.887 from froufrouretro through Etsy, Dec., 20. 

Our first dish towel!  I can find no markings about its date or origin.  As with many French materials, the colors are lovely.  The present image is temporary.

1990? French kitchen towel.  FC.  16½" square.  Cotton.  €5 from Michel Prigent, Lavernose-Lacasse, France, through Ebay, May, '22.

What a lovely and lively design!  This crow has no generic cheese.  It is Camembert!  Perfect condition.

 

1990? French kitchen towel.  "The Fox and the Goat."  16½" square.  Cotton.  Where and when?

Here is another lively design!  Is this fox waving goodbye to the silly goat?  Perfect condition.
