Vintage Independence Day(?) Tablecloth

Now, I truthfully have no idea how old this tablecloth is or whether the intended theme was Independence Day, a Souvenir from Philadelphia, or simply Colonial Americana. I found it on Etsy, and I'm guessing it's from around the 70's? All I can say is, it really spoke to this Philly Girl! Love the icons, the great colors and the wink and nod to cross stitch blocks.

The rick-rack design border is kinda perky too.

A close-up of icons.
 Independence Hall, Liberty Bell and Betsy Ross.

Apple tree (Johnny Appleseed?), carriage and PA Dutch looking planter.

 Patriot, eagle with shield and spinning wheel.

Paul Revere(?)
It's Johnny Appleseed and Paul Revere that make me think this is more Americana than Philly... But not sure.

But I will say this tablecloth has lots of red, white and blue and is really fun to bring out during the summer holidays!
Anyone know more about it?

Happy 4th of July everyone-Have a happy day:@)
