[QUOTE="djace564, post: 165731, member: 2771"]This is probably a long shot, but I found a very old photograph of an older gentleman hidden behind a random American Indian-style drawing that had been sent to someone with a cryptic message. "A get well painting of your old friend, with lots of love + kisses from Denise." Now, the picture on view wasn't a painting, and the hidden photograph obviously wasn't either, so what were they referring to? Why was this picture hidden? Why after all these years was the picture still hidden in the back? I had to cut some paper off of the back to get it out, and that piece of paper had the message on. For whatever reason, the person who received this drawing didn't bother to look in the back of it. The original drawing was basically garbage, by the way. It had no value whatsoever. In fact, it looked as if it had been printed out of a computer. Clearly the drawing was unimportant and only meant to conceal this photograph The photograph looks to be from the early era of photography. Here it is: [ATTACH=full]45425[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
