Comments:
This bookmark was made in the USA. It is woven, and, as can be seen, the top has not yet been turned over. The pointed end has been trimmed, such that there is no fold over behind the bookmark.
There is another bookmark with exactly the same title and woven words, recorded as cash-bm0779. The differences between the two bookmarks being, firstly the very top decoration, which is of a chevron design in the version above and of a diamond design in the cash-bm0779 version. Secondly, on very close inspection, the image of the beaver above is slightly different, with its tail draped below the wooden log, and on top on the cash-bm0779 version.

This bookmark is signed on the reverse top turn-over:
