HI, I own quite a few of those blankets you can just wash in the washer and they come out just like new. By the way where have you purchased them lately as I am looking for a couple of new blankets and cant seem to find them online or anywhere?

I have an original king San Marcos that is now 16 years old. It’s dark green and has a lion on it. I live in Katy, Texas and 3 years ago I purchased a Solaron which is a Korean Blanket. It has the Virgen de Guadalupe. I love it! it keeps my hubby and me warm. I even started to sell them last year making good business. God Bless

I have an original queen size San Marcos that my girlfriend keeps trying to steal from me. It has a lion, elephant and a zebra just hanging out on it lol.

My mom got it for me nearly 15 years ago from a lady that worked with her in the factory. I’m looking for one at swapmeets but not having much luck. If you should get your hands on it, then cherish it because once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Happy New Year…..I used to live in AZ back late 80’s thru the 90’s, I used to do day trips to Nogales and buy a San Marcos, Jose Cuervo Centenarrio and hand painted paper mache birds….I have a lavender and white with a tiger, reversible (king sz), a sea-green oriental scene with a gazebo, swans, mountains… just beautiful, and one with dark green background with jungle animals just STUNNING….all of them……I felt like a princess from my very first blankee, been spoiled ever since…sigh, I live in Minnesota now so I have what I have and treasure them….. believe me they are priceless and you truly have to go to Mexico for them, mine even as old as they are, are in fantastic shape, that’s how you know you have an original…..
…………..anyone going to Mexico anytime soon? God Bless all of you who really own an original, I feel blessed……………..

I have a few San Marcos. I have a twin teal grean/ black one with a cat on it, my brother and I got matching blankets when we got our new bedroom set when I was 7 (18 years ago). They were identical except hishad a black trim and mine had teal green trim. I also have 2 king size brown/tan ones, one with a bear, the other a lion. I love my San Marcos blankets, best part of winter. I do have 2 koreanos and although they are warm they are not the same.

I have two San Marcos a full size biege and brown with flowers, the other is full size wine, gray and black with horses. I absolutely love them. A friend passed them on to me, I feel so lucky. Especially when I read the company is out of business. I am however still hopeful to find another somewhere, somehow.

I think my San Marcos has a horse or a flower on it. Not sure, but it’s green and my favorite thing in the world. You guys can use it during New Years!

I posted on 1/25 that I was going to Mexico and would be looking for blankets. I’m back (and have sinced moved to Missouri where a good San Marcos comes in handy in the winter!) and did bring one blanket back for my daughter (the only person in the family that didn’t have her own awwwww) San Marcos has gone out of business and has been for awhile now. BUT I did find a blanket at the tangues (sp? or flea market! A queen size with a tiger on it cost me about $19 US but it wasn’t a San Marcos…it is a very, very nice cobija though….and my daughter (her nickname is Cat) loved it….next trip I have to bring three more for my grandbabies.

I love my San Marcos blanket. It has penguins on it, but it’s the warmest, most beloved blanket I’ve ever owned. It’s kind of heavy, but I guess that’s what makes it so warm. It’s not like these “blankets” they sell nowadays that weigh every bit of 2 ounces. These are some hefty blankets. Even though mines still in pretty good shape, I’d love to find another.
