    One pic each trying to show them (in the bed of my truck) and their various sizes, all actually pretty much disgustingly dirty/motheaten/etc. when the pics were taken right after they were "recovered" and unrolled in the yard, then rolled right back up into a bix box with a couple handy little boxes of mothballs also thrown in with 'em...

    Now that box is kinda in the way in my storage and I am showing this simply to plead with any/all of our resident CW S&T 'rug experts' to offer a clue, if any of y'all would care to do so -- and that question being:

    DOES ANYBODY RECOGNIZE ANYTHING ABOUT ANY OF 'EM that should otherwise STOP me from the likelihood that they'll all in turn get dragged out to the patio/yard for the dogs to shred??

    The one in pic 4 looks (to me?) like it is probably the oldest of the bunch, but it it is also the one that obviously has the majority of whatever pattern it had on it now gone. (wear, moths, I dunno??) The other three aren't quite as 'gone' with their fabric and patterns (pretty ones with lots of red, I like red....) and at least one of them has some remains of a tag under a corner, they still just strike me as something a little more potentially 'old' than (to me) similar looking rugs anybody can buy brand new at WallyWorld tomorrow...?

    OH WELL, there it is, with my huge THANKS in advance to anybody that'd take a moment to comment with their own info/opinion no matter what it might be. :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

    I'd just really *hate* to accidentally find out weeks or years later after the fact that I actually *did* feed some or other (maybe valuable and?) really cool "Persian Flying Carpet" to the mutts in the backyard -- they always enjoy whatever odd scraps of carpet or t-shirts or small plastic objects or anything else they don't dig up by themselves but can otherwise chew to death...??? <LOL>
