Default 1950s Rawlings Products

That style of Rawlings tag is associated with the fabric by the same name. The 1952 Rawlings Roundup; Issue #4 has a great article on this lighter fabric (5.71 oz per yard) that is made from 45% wool and 55% Dacron. Had this uniform fabric been period to 1922 it would have been all wool 8oz fabric.
