Our newly renovated museum has artifacts such as this which really date me as I remember many of them. What a blessing to have been brought up in a period that seems so innocent compared to the happenings of today. Tomorrow I need to go to the post office and buy some 47 cent stamps to put on my $4.00 birthday card........UGH!
Yes, this would date me too. We haven't havd 4 cent stamps here in years... (I remember when it was "a penny postcard" -- now about 30 cents or so...... Our domestic letter mail rate now is up to almost 50 cents. Those were the days.
