Or whatever it might be.
It was advertised as being a scarf.
To me the cloth feels pretty much like acetate, and given the size I'd say it would have been put on a coffee table or sumthin' like that. Definitely not a scarf though. Very thin cloth.
The SAC embroidery looks typical for the fifties and matches the way SAC patches were made back then.
I think I have a similar or identical sample somewhere, which was wrapped in the dated and named box from about 1957 or thereabouts.
Useless, but a fun piece of history to have.
It makes me think of a 'fifties mess hall on a sun soaked remote SAC air base with B-47's next to a three mile runway and just tens of miles of desert all around.
