wow that news paper is from the moon landing.. lots of treasure here and are they headed for The Store? keep the photos coming, i like these blasts from the past
Oh my gosh....I would be going nutz. Well I am but more nutz. These are bonafide, gold plated, wonderfilled finds if I ever saw any. The tin can art, rocks and cage have me having palpitations......how fabulous. I am so jelly of you. You are so lucky ducky to be able to search through "relics". Wow, have fun for me too my friend, Linda
What wonderful treasures! I think they are fantastic. You have found a treasure trove. I saw today on a website that the stove in that house, runs between 2,000 to 10,000 depending on if it works. Isn't that incredible? Have a wonderful time walking down memory lane. It hurts a bit doesn't it?
What wonderful treasures! Intrigued by the little wooden cage. Maybe it held a pet chicken or dinner at one time. The photo of that man...a tad creepy!
I would say the classic photo is Ludwig Van Beethoven. I am quite sure it is him. He carried on composing and his music was all that more amazing because he wrote so much of it when he was almost or totally deaf. At the end of the premiere of the Ninth Symphony, he had to be turned around to see the ovation he could not hear. You would have enjoyed his love for long walks in the woods. His woodland hikes inspired some of his most famous work.You probably remember "Walter Murphy and the Big Apple Band had a No.1 hit with "A fifth of Beethoven in 1976, turning the opening of Beethoven's Fifth into eventually "Fever" music when the track was used in Saturday Night Fever. How about that and I love all your treasures. lol to family n hugz to Marcy.
That is a bunch of impressive looking "stuff"! I was going to guess a President in the photo:)
