My Secret Santa really put a lot of thought and effort into finding a variety of gifts. I realize that Amelia Earhart and Andre the Giant may not appear to have much in common, but I like collecting each of them.
I have long been deep into the Earhart mystery because there are so many different paths one can explore when it comes to her disappearance. Meanwhile, Andre is the only wrestler I collect because he reminds me of going to television tapings as a kid with my father at the Hamburg (Pa.) Fieldhouse. Andre was by far my favorite attraction from those television tapings all those decades ago.
The eight different Earhart covers from her hometown of Atchison, Kansas are especially cool. July 24, 1963, was the first day her postage stamp was released. The covers from Atchison are neat because I have communicated in the past with Amelia Earhart Birthplace Museum director Heather Roesch on Facebook about some of the items that were released during Earhart's lifetime. Atchison is huge into maintaining Earhart's legacy.
Thank you, Secret Santa
