The brands, their markings - lots of history and social commentary to ponder there.

On the other hand, had I saved a scrapbook page like this when I was in my late teens, I'm certain I would have parted with it a decade or two later.

The scrapbooks are a treasure, though, no matter how eccentric the collector may seem through these choices--a real window into what made each of these people tick.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.com
