Call for Posts: Cabinet of Curiosities #7 at Walking the Berkshires

Supposing you had this photograph in your attic, in among the other family accumulations, and nothing was written on the back to tell you anything about it.

Don't let this happen to you!

The next Cabinet of Curiosities blog carnival will be right here at Walking the Berkshires on May 19th.  Now is the time to post about that the tea your ancestor shook out of his breeches after the Boston Tea Party and passed down through the generations, or the oddest roadside attraction you visited on your last vacation.  Now is the time to tell us about your collection of coprolites (or the one your "friend" has if you don't want to own up to it).

Bring me your stories behind the historical or religious relics, artifacts, mementos, talismans, specimens and ephemera in your steamer trunks, sock drawers and dusty fireplace mantles. Dazzle us with the oddities you have found in the World Wide Wunderkammer.

Submission deadline is May 18th at 12:00 p.m. EST.  You may e-mail them to me at greensleevesenviro AT sbcglobal DOT net or use the submission form.
