The National Trust donated a sample from the floor to Kirkcaldy Galleries in 1997, after the trust acquired the property where McCartney lived from 1955 to 1964. It measures 24cm by 9cm.
Gavin Grant, collections team leader with the cultural charity OnFife, which runs the galleries, said: “The McCartney floor covering is one of 6000 objects in our internationally significant linoleum collection and we’d love to know if it was made in Fife.”
Only took them 24 years to start the investigation. It'll end up being one of those "cold case" docudramas on ITV

Contains swearing. Go to 4.15 for the reference or watch the lot and laugh.
