Hard to know which of this proud shopkeepers of William Bliss scrawled the note at the bottom of the front of this real photo postcard from 1906
with a crack in the mold material at one corner and the wood splitting in that spot on the side
I think with a little egg draw inside
with some craquelure to the image as evident
which would have been used by a nurse for all sorts of functions
Pretty (and Useful) Marbled Paper Covered Documents Box, 1894 19th century photograph Hard to know which ofI found this box, covered in marbled paper with gray cloth tape edging, just too pretty to walk away from, and it would be a useful one for stashing letters or clippings or rolled up papers, or a big lot of drawing pencils or markers, too. Nice construction too. With a label inside from the Ruggles Gale Co. Binders and Stationers, Columbus Ohio, and handwritten description of contents on one end relating to "Settlements of June 4, 1894." 9 1 2" x 4 1
