The 1950's: 1st Class stamps were 4 cents! There was a service called "Air Mail" which carried a 60% premium. There was no "Media Mail," but instead 3rd Class for "Mdse, Printing, Books, Seeds, and Catalogs." The good old days.....
At Portland Pandemonium we always have a lot of stuff suitable for the Man's Cave or the Woman's Nook including lots of tools and notions for the creatives amongst us... "Make yourself useful" is what I tell the things I find, often rescuing them from the dump, picking them up along side the road, or worse! The mundane comes alive when you choose vintage over new: Reuse, Recycle, Repurpose, Rinse and Repeat! Put something old and beat up back to work, or just put it on display to let everyone know you appreciate that they really don't make 'em like they used to!
