Of course, it helps that I do like history. Just last week I found an old news paper in my buffet drawer from 1956. Yeah, that's not really old, but it was fun seeing the prices. Shirts were on sale at Sears for $1.79. Pants were 2.29. Bananas were a nickle a pound.Patricia Bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03382033674042021556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7474271316278058173.post-75534642475259253822015-01-16T11:47:29.759-05:002015-01-16T11:47:29.759-05:00I love researching old newspapers.

One of the pages included the story about the death of Charlie Chaplin's mother.

For example a fire when my mother was a child. My mother was thrilled that we had found it, especially with a photo. The night of the fire is still very vivid in her mind. My mother was taken in my two elderly sisters in the town until the family could find a new home.Mary Prestonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02201076939557413255noreply@blogger.com
