I'm an ex-antiques dealer and collector with an interest in history and geneology. Over the years I've acquired some treasures which, through the printed page, can be shared without me actually having to give them up. Some things are just worthless unless they are shared. This book is filled with treasures from the past. The wonderful phrases from those vintage autograph albums that our ancestors passed around with thier friends, relatives, and classmates are accompanied with the charming and rare black and white silhouettes I've collected over the years. Many of these are of children. A great gift for one who values vintage treasures or a senior in your life who would surely remember many of these phrases and cherish these vintage images.
