All of these things are from eBay? Wow. I've been thinking about prowling around antique stores in my area with my eyes peeled, so I feel inspired, even though the chances of finding much are probably low. My mother and sister live in Virginia, though, so maybe sometime I could talk them into doing some antique shopping down there.
The 1915 convention stickpin reminds me of my one KD antique, a large group photo of that convention. At a national convention a while ago, the archives were selling off old photos, so I nabbed that one. It must be a copy and not the only extant one, because the same photo appears in Ordinary Miracles, which was published later. I wish I had thought ahead and bought a bunch from any era--the 1915 one was bought for only a quarter---since my decorating scheme has become retro oriented.
