Spring Is In The Air!

Yes! It's not that far away...St.Patrick's Day, Easter (for those who celebrate), and Springtime in general!

These Vintage Postcards came from our Grandmother's collection and are dated 1910! Yes folks, they are 100 years old and still in great shape!

(For more information on post cards, check out one of these links... vintage postcards, postcard condition, or postcard history. )

Now, is the time to display some of your past cards. You did keep them, didn't you?

Why not take a moment of your time and go find them? It's a good time to sort through those special memories and preserve them...all at the same time.

And please...don't just put them back in a box, either! Why not take some of your favorite cards and create a scrapbook?

And while you're digging and sorting...

Need some ideas? That's what we are here for. We love this kind of stuff! Browse through our menu bar (top left) and discover for yourselves, what we are talking about.

Let's face it! We all have that box full of old magazines or newspapers sitting around somewhere. Perhaps, like us, you collect vintage post cards!

Are they in that same box? How long has it been since you looked at them? By the way, what exactly is in your box, anyway?

Have some fun looking!

Here's what this one said on the back...

"Dear Mary,

We are having our Easter vacation this week. I hope the rabbit will bring you lots of eggs.

from, Fern"

C'mon, open the box!

We challenge you to go and find that box...your box! And when you find it, we'll be right here to help you sort it all out. (Add us to your Favorites!)

Pull that stuff out of the box and spread it across the kitchen table.

Look at some of our stuff here on our living room floor! (Believe us, this is just the tip of the iceberg!)

We have vintage maps, memo books, school books, letters, postcards, newspapers, scrapbooks, photos, and much, much more!

And you know what? We're guessing that you do to!

We have fun looking through our box of old paper memorabilia. (Actually, we have many boxes...scattered throughout our house!)

Not sure what you have in your box?

Need some examples to compare your stuff...with some of our stuff! Check out this page for a ton of paper examples.

Look, we've been collecting paper memories for nearly thirty years!

However, along the way, we have learned a great deal! Quite simply, we would like to pass along some of our knowledge (and mistakes) on to you! Plus, we'll include some great websites for you to check out!

It is our sincere hope and desire that some of our insight, can be transferred into a positive benefit to you!

So, that's why we decided to put this website together. We would like to help you enjoy your box and your memories!

C'mon, open the box!

So, give us a try! Look around! Keep those memories alive! They are...your precious memories! Oh, one more thing! We're not done collecting yet! So, check back from time to time and visit us! We have a lot more boxes to fill!

C'mon, open the box already, will ya?

It was covered with dust & dirt, stained badly, and had that lovely "musty" old basement smell.

Just take a look at what we found!

It was full of very cool vintage documents, letters, postcards, and books.

Our job now, has just begun! It's time to roll up the sleeves and dig into this box. We hope to preserve many of these vintage paper treasures!
