1930s 1940s Cadillac dealer Motor Car custom lap robe Motorobe passenger blanket

Description: A short bit of history to describe this rare piece of auto history you're looking at. My grandfather told me that back in the day automobiles didn't have heaters, so a "lap robe" was wrapped around your legs and lap in the car to keep warm. Come the 1930s and a new era, heaters may have arrived in luxury cars but the lap robe remained and evolved into a sign of luxury and comfort. It changed from the old simple form of a 1920s fur blanket into the broadcloth robe auto historians know now. With 5 bands of stitching around the edge and a gorgeous shimmering layer of soft fur on one side, this hefty lap robe is the epitome of large classic car accessories. Weighing 5 lbs this robe will certainly keep someone toasty warm in their limousine. Sporting the Cadillac label, this is a dealership authorized accessory as shown in the accessory brochure. It is in good original slightly used condition with some small stains and spots. It's a gorgeous layer of silvery fur that shimmers in the sunlight, and a dignified gray broadcloth on the other side. It has that recognizable attic storage aroma, but has no bad smells! It measures approximately 67" x 50". In some cars with a rear seat you may have seen a bar or rope hanging on the backside of the front seat backrest. You may know it as a "robe rail". That? It's not a grab handle. It was the holder for this lap robe to drape over when not in use. Hence ROBE rail! Free shipping contiguous USA. Inside my box Dan 225
