<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 140584, member: 23"]I was inspired to open the old suitcase and start sorting. My mother's oldest sister was born in 1894. She loved postcards and developed penpals from different places in order to swap. She also collected silent film star photos and autographs. I have a scrapbook full of Rudolph Valentino clippings. Also his book. Did you know he wrote poetry? Anyway, I inherited this falling-apart suitcase. The postcards range in date from 1914 to the 1970s. Some were mailed and some are blank. Several hundred. This was my entertainment today. The military ones were from my Mom when she was in the Army 1943 to 1945. .
