an antique


I saw this picture a few months ago for the first time.
I loved it, but it was too expensive.
Today
I found myself back downtown on State Street
in the same antique shop.
It was still there.
This time I decided to bargain.
Yes...
I brought it home and consider it a treasure.
At the new home there will be a dedicated room for the children.
It will hang in there.
I couldn't be more pleased.

The stamp...
1906
The Hillman Mfg Co
