Vintage family snapshots

You see these boxes of hundreds of snapshots at antique malls and junk shops. While they're often fascinating, I don't like looking at them because the idea of someone selling or giving away family pictures makes me unspeakably sad. Then I happened across one at Uncommon Objects in Austin. We were rushing through on our way to dinner, so I wasn't in shopping mode. Then I couldn't stop thinking about it. I said if I could find it again the next day, I'd get it.

There you have it. I also bought some Kenyan safari-print fabric and a few greeting cards.

Interesting post. There is indeed something sad about old family photographs.
