Is this a Saints thing - or a general AFL thing - I found it an Op Shop

I think it was a Saints scarf as I seem to remember that logo in possibly the 80's

Not a scarf - it is a specific wall hanging - designed that way - and about the size of a pillow case

Not a bar mat - the top of one side is upside down so that when it is folded over the bar it sits the right way up.

Can you do a DNA on the beer stains?

It's circa 1980 at a guess.

It is a tapestry - but I was interested in its origins - I agree to about the early 80's (was a teenager during that time) but I have never seen anything like it before. I know St Kilda bought out some individual collector items etc

I knew it wasn't a scarf but what I meant is that there was a scarf with that logo in the 80's which would indicate it is an authentic Saints item

It looks like the sort of rug Carlton supporters kept so they could wipe their feet on us.

I've got a moulded plastic key ring given to me in 1997; it has the same angry saint design so I'd say it is from the 1990's.

This is from the mid to late 90s.

I quite liked that Maddog Muir Saints mascot design.

I think your right... looks like a bar mat hung over a stick, my memory is vague but I've seen the same mascot late 79,s early eighties
