Yes, I got the wrong name on the Moose Lake issue - but the surname showed up again as I was reorganizing a closet - seeking items to take to the Antique Road Show that my wife got tickets to for this Saturday. As I have relatives in both the North and South, sometimes the pictures get mixed. I don't intend to do that, they just do - so this Galusha family portrait I have, may indeed be a Northern photo instead of the Southern photo I thought it was. Back to the Road Show, I've decided to take my great grandfather Parkhurst's pocket watch - an Elgin, to see what it's worth beyond sentimental value. I'm also taking a small collection of wall posters / calendars I've stored for several years - including a 1939 calendar in some sort of heavy nonpaper material; a mourning poster for William McKinley, some artsy ones, and a religious one or two. Once I got to rambling in my closet it was difficult to decide what to take - that would perhaps be of interest / value versus just sentimental or curiosity. I did discover that way back when - perhaps Chas or others would remember such? that when one bought a can / carton of Cocomalt one would get a puzzle inside. I also have a puzzle from Kallfelz Bros. (Snow Flake Brand Baked Goods) in Syracuse that I guess is from the 1940s? It was surprisingly colorful. At some point I need to put these puzzles together to see what picture(s) they make. Tim
