Host Terry Kovel found another pillow collectible at the Renninger's show in Kutstown, Pa. It's a special form of embroidery known as "punch hole."
Animal-print embroidery patterns were very popular in the 1920s. You could buy patterns in needlecraft books or from local stores. The typical price today ranges from $75 to $125.
The Kovels shared their Pearl Harbor punch work pillow cover.
Here's another one from the Kovels' collection. This one with flowers would sell for around $40.
