Okay...so, I know some people think that DDers are nuts, but, I swear I'm not(I don't do it a lot)
People throw away a LOT of things that are still perfectly good, and also a LOT of collectible things as well....
Well, as some of you know I live in apartments, and in every apartment complex there is an area where they tend to put the elderly tenants....When one dies or moves to the "home" their families usually just throw out anyting they don't want.....that's where I come in...I scan the top of the pile and if I see anything interesting...I'm divin
Well, a few months ago I found some patches from (I'm guessing) a Navy uniform....some pins....a vintage Bradley travel clock(not in great shape though)....some chain jewelry...and my favorite.....a pocket Bible
The Bible was given to a man named Louis M. Nichols on Sept. 2, 1942....it has his Service Number in it as well(357-74-99)...I would like to find out a little more about him, but I think he may be deceased...How would I go about that? Every website I find, you have to pay for the info...and I'm broke (as usual)
I'll try to post a pic or two of the Bible in a min
Thanks for reading my thread!
