Vintage Patriotic Eagle Linen Tea Towel

This appears to be a vintage patriotic tea towel, likely made of linen or a linen-cotton blend. The primary color of the fabric is a natural, undyed off-white, characteristic of unbleached linen, which gives it a rustic and traditional feel. The towel is adorned with multiple illustrations of bald eagles, a prominent American symbol, rendered in various artistic styles and color palettes. The largest and most central eagle features a dark body, white head, and a red banner draped beneath it. This banner prominently displays the text "LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL" in white lettering and "INDIVISIBLE" also in white lettering, with additional text 'UNDER GOD' on a side banner and 'ONE NATION' above the main eagle. Surrounding this central motif are several smaller eagles, each depicted differently: one with a green body, another with a red, white, and blue shield, and others in black or brown. There's also a circular motif with a golden eagle-like figure. The colors used for the printed designs include reds, greens, blues, yellows, browns, and blacks, which are vibrant but may show some fading consistent with age and use. The fabric itself exhibits a somewhat coarse weave, typical of linen, and appears to have some creasing and slight wear, but no obvious tears or significant stains are visible from the image. The edges of the towel seem hemmed, indicating a finished textile product. The overall style suggests a mid-20th-century aesthetic, possibly from the 1950s to 1970s, making it a collectible piece of Americana.
