<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 242409, member: 51"]Have nothing to add other than these are tremendously interesting! Someone in the 1930s--guessing a woman? socialite? must have asked for a handkerchief from all these people (many famous) and gotten a signature during travels. The handkerchiefs are so varied, in style and wear, some pressed, some not, that they almost certainly came from the people who signed them. My mind just is spinning at the story behind this. If only they could talk! </p><p><br /></p><p>You mentioned 50, are most of them signed?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
