recent small "find"
Posted By: leon
Recently I was fortunate enough to find (and buy) some cards left to a gentleman in Northern California. They have been stored in a closet since 1956. The grandson said he got them when his grandmother passed away in 1992. The grandfather, who was born in 1904, had parents/grandparents that came from England for the gold rush (and did quite well) collected them as a kid. He got married and moved to San Francisco in 1922 where he became successful in business. They went through the depression and I am told the cards are about all they kept....as they weren't worth anything at the time. The grandson was born in 1957 so he never knew his grandfather yet got the cards as an inheritance. Here is what I was able to acquire.... |
