I dI have three generations of Collector's in my Grandmother(RIP), my Mom(RIP) and Me. The estate boxes have sat for thirty years, and I am starting to unpack them. I didn't know how much my Grandmother had stored. So, I have many things from my family, and that I bought myself, which I got for aesthetic purposes, yet often didn't know the origin of the pieces. I hope to find out more about these family treasures here. MichelleAmieux, michelleamieux@yahoo.com (Read more)
