Crochet Rug Pattern Mail Order Design 7183

Crocheted Rug:  This pattern contains directions for crocheting a Rug in two sizes - made of 6-inch squares with or without border and fringe in four colors. Use Rug Yarn.   The first rug, without border or fringe, measures 36 x 48 inches.  The second rug, with border and fringe measures 41 x 53 inches.

This is a Mail Order Design pattern purchased through newspapers and catalogs.  The pattern was marketed as Alice Brooks 7183.  

Note:  Not often do I find obvious mistakes in the Design patterns.   In the case of this one, the newspaper article states it is an afghan and the squares are 9 inches.   I'd imagine many a buyer of the pattern was surprised when received that it was a rug.   Although, change the yarn to knitting worsted and you'd have a quite nice afghan.
