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...
