30 photos project - Older than me.
On the flyleaf is written "Many Happy Returns of the Day Charlie December 1, 1923"
I'm not sure what the occasion was but Charlie was my father's father and the book was given to me by his wife, my father's mother.
A wonderful keepsake from your grandmother and memento from your granddad’s life! Definitely older than you by a good margin! Spot on for the prompt. I love old books.
@kjarn 99 years old this December. Hard to believe. @rensala I wish I had someone good to pass them on to. No kids, great -nieces and nephews probably don't read books. Hopefully someone will want them and love them. @grammyn Thanks Katy. Grandpa's birthday was in March and Granny's was in July. Not an anniversary present because that wasn't in December and it's a bit early for Christmas. It's an enigma as Linus says in You're a Good Man Charlie Brown. @mirroroflife Thank you. @mcsiegle Thanks Mary. 29 years older than me in December. @tunia Thanks Tunia. @bkbinthecity You're right. My granny really wanted me to read these and I was thrilled when my family vacationed on PEI because I got to see Green Gables. @craftymeg thanks Meg. @jacqbb Thanks Jacqueline. I enjoyed them myself. @haskar Thank you. @pyrrhula Thank you Ferry. @olivetreeann Thank you Ann. @summerfield Thank you Vikki. @thewatersphotos Thanks Gary.
