Thanks for the photo! I spent a lot of time on AS MD-80s throughout the 90s (both F and Y), so this brings back some fond memories. Notice the audio jacks...I remember a few times trying to plug in my headphones and being disappointed there was no audio. I loved the intricate fabric patterns, and the F seats were really comfortable and well-padded! Would love to have one of those wide leather seats as a reading chair...

Those interiors remained almost the same until the final MD-80s were retired in 2008. The only change was that the F seats were pretty quickly reupholstered to dark leather, but with the same embossed patterns. Wonder if it was because the light colors showed dirt? Cough...VX F seats...cough.
