Can anyone tell me where this rug might be from, just from the signature and fringe? I'll post more pics of the full design later.

I found some repairs, the selvages may have been rewrapped, but not for sure.



Repairs:

a small white area




the blue line





edge was rolled and worn

It is a Kashmir rug, ca. 1975 -85 (more likly before 1980). Pic 3 - you are right, an old repair. Pic 7 - the long sides often roll under the rug, if there is no leather band under the selvages - typical wear. I think the selvage is mostly original.
