Red Gone with the Wind Feedsack

Next to the Feedsack Dolly, this GWTW sack is my favorite. Actually, I have three of the sacks sewn together making a large tablecloth. I bought the cloth several years ago at an estate auction. Of the three colors the sack came in, red, yellow and blue, the red one is the most valuable at about $100 per sack.

I am blessed to be a native of the Shenandoah Valley of VA where feedsacks were plentiful when I was growing up because of the poultry growing. Our family raised 2000 broilers at a time, and had laying hens. The feed for other farm animals came in the bags, too, but mostly I remember the bags with the chicken feed. Nancy
