Weekly Theme: Old-fashioned:This week I have two photos of things belonging to love ones who have passed.
The first is my maternal grandmother's typewriter.
This second photo is of my dearly departed mother-in-law and her mom and sisters (in their old-fashioned clothes). My mother-in-law, Hedy, is the second to the youngest.

What a superb typewriter! I haven't seen a keyboard quite like that, without the numbers across the top.
I love the family photo too. I feel we must cherish these, for future generations.
The manual typewriter is very old. I love to look at old photos. They tell so much about the lives in the past.
That second photo is definitely one to cherish for a long time. :) I love old photos!

When you have the link and/or blogroll then I will add your blog url.
