r/ephemera

It's a towel, so not sure it is a considered ephemera, but found it when cleaning out my deceased mother's house. She had bought it in the 1970s. I was surprised it still existed.

Irene was born in 1903. She graduated from high school in 1920 (I have her class ring). She died very young in childbirth with twin boys who also passed with her. She had a separate scrapbook for photographs (I have that too), but I’ve always loved this book. The 4th photo is a postcard dated 1911 from Irene’s aunt Mettie. This is one of my most prized possessions.

More from grandpa's stash.
