Peeking Into The Past

South Bend Indiana Cabinet Photo Unknown Young Boy

2019-03-19T08:40:00.004-07:00

Today I am sharing this young boy from South Bend Indiana.

Photographer is A McDonald Studios. Great back design.

Looking at the photo itself I can not understand what is happening on the left side of photo.

I do not see his left arm and there is a large piece of clothing or something else covering that area .

He has the saddest look on his face.

Any one have any ideas regarding this Looks like he may be holding up a shield but it is plain blank.

No name to let us know who this young man was during the early 1900s.

Peeking Into The Past Picture Of The Day Real Photo Postcard Sugar Ray Robinson

2016-03-14T19:07:00.001-07:00

Real Photo Postcards were made in the early 1900's The front side would have a full-size real photograph. Back side was where you could write your message and the address of your friend or family member.

The popularity of real photo postcards soared nationwide with many people beginning to collect the cards in albums.

No other single format has provided such a massive photo history of America.

This weekend I sold a real photo postcard of Sugar Ray Robinson on eBay.

I love selling vintage photos on eBay and real photo postcards are probably my favorite to sell.

Thanks for stopping by.

Awhile back at an auction in Duluth Minnesota I bought a photo album with pictures labeled Cripps

who married Bartlett Eugene Allen. There was another photo of Grace and looking at the two

side by side I think I found my girl.

Back of photo is photographer in De Kalb, Illinois.

Grace and her family lived in Iowa most of her life. Now while I can not be definite that I found the

right person on ancestry and do feel somewhat confident. This photo is offered on eBay and looking

Look What I Found At The Bottom of a Old Hat Box At A Garage Sale

2015-11-18T18:51:00.000-08:00

I love garage sales and it is all about the hunt.

Piled on tables are a lot of treasures some cool and some just old chipped stuff from grandma's cupboards.

While wandering the tables I found a large old plastic hat box. Dirty , falling apart and zipper broken.

But inside were several wearable vintage women's hats from the 1930s to 1950s.

All listed on eBay in our store. Sold one or two and it was time for us to travel south for the winter.

Hats take very little space in the van so on the road they went.

Well today another is sold and packed and on its way to Las Vegas

where it happens we are right now for the next few months.

We have a few more hats for sale and hopefully we will mail out a few more before returning north.
