We're providing lots of photos and we welcome your questions. If you're looking for other vintage table linens, please check out my other items - we have many beautiful items available and we love to combine shipping!!  Condition:  These pieces have been stored for a long time but have fared surprisingly well.  The area around the tablecloth monogram was exposed over the years and shows some discoloration and spotting.  One of the cloths has similiar soiling.  This should respond well to a good soaking.  Otherwise, the condition is very good -  no spots, stains, rips or tears.  Size:  The banquet cloth is 90" x 138" with a 3 3/4" monogram.  The lap cloths are 26" x 27" with 2" monograms.
