1916 Chicago Cubs Dugout Blanket
Hi Guys!
A local guy has what he claims is a 1916 Chicago Cubs Dugout Blanket that was supposedly given to players early in 1916 season due to the bitter Chicago cold. Is this legit? According to the seller these were also sold to spectators at the stadium. Any thoughts? Thanks! Michael |

I am not familiar with it, but it looks like a Pillow cover, not a blanket. Doesn't seem like something that would be given to players in the dugout.

Based on the color, I would also speculate U. of Chicago football. These pillow covers were also common college memorabilia items of the time.

Thanks Joe! I would say it roughly measures 24' by 24' which to me seems a bit large for a pillow. Im not sure about it but it sparked my interest if possibly baseball related.
Thanks again! Michael |

That would be the size of the pillow cover, exactly. I am fairly certain you have a pillow cover, and pretty sure it is from U. of Chicago.

Yeah, the logo and colors match U of C perfectly!

But I would still like to hear his 'evidence' that supports his conclusions. It sounds like he decided in advance what would be most valuable, then made up the details to support it.
