129.93.101.101 (talk) 16:06, 17 July 2008 (UTC)We have found another use of muslin sheets here at the Larsen Museum. It appears that 6'x6' sheets were used in the early parts of the 20th Century for instructional displays here in Nebraska. The program was called Caravan and the sheets were apparently hung in railroad cars which were shunted and parked in various towns. The sheets contained information and diagrams of farm buildings (Homes and various types of sheds) granaries, brooders etc. including choice of materials, design parameters etc. We have 32 of those sheets. They are in perfect condition after so many years. The actual metarial is listed on one of the canvases as:INDIAN HEAD PERMANENT FINISH.Dr. Louis I. Leviticus, Curator
