As many of us in 2013 are thinking about holiday gifts and loved ones, I thought it would be interesting to share my great grandmother’s lists from a century ago. The lists go back to 1906, and I’ve posted the pages from 1906-7, 1912-13 and 1923.
Christmas presents – 1913
Mother – felt shoes
Mrs. Duck – cream & sugar
Mr. Duck – suspenders
