This beautiful 20″ by 30″ depiction of Farrah Fawcett Majors on a fuzzy plush polyester-ish rug, simply entitled “Farrah,” was manufactured by Pro Arts Inc. in 1976. I found this little angel in a weird and musty surplus warehouse/store near New Haven, Connecticut in the late ’80s and I’ve treasured it ever since.
What Allee has to say about this: I’ve seen TONS of Farrah Fawcett memorabilia but I’ve literally never seen this. I usually hate these plush rugs because as soon as you run your fingers over them all this white starts showing in between the color and the thing looks 300 years old. But this is a thing of beauty.
At 20″ x 30″ I guess it was meant to be a bath mat but I’d sure hate to feel this polyester-ish thing under my feet. Though looking at Farrah would put me in a better mood. |
