My photo album was carefully packaged and arrived on time. The seller wrote me a sweet note and also sent some teeny vintage postcards from my city. What a treat! It felt like getting a package from a friend.

Traveling Back in Time

I've always loved the idea of being able to go back in time and see how things were back then. Looking at old photographs and reading old postcards and booklets of the past is the closest thing I've found.

I've collected old postcards, photographs and ephemera for over 20 years. The first thing I ever bought at an antiques store was when I was about 13. It was a 1918 copy of Life magazine.

I really like getting the right image or item into the right hands. I often find things and "save" them because I can just tell that this will be the perfect image for someone.

I have a blog where I share items from my shop and some from my own collection.
