Oh Nancy that is a wonderful keepsake! We can only hope that our grandkids will treasure ours the same way.

Yes this is a keeper for sure. I had it in my cedar chest. ITS an interesting picture of the time's looking through it. They must have given out name cards at that time. Pretty little cards with a name in them. Guess they were called. "calling cards". NancyJo
