Theme: Classic | Become a Photo Hunter | View Blogroll
I have several classic books:
I decided to just take a picture of one shelf and spare you several close-ups. 
There is a set of Dickens on the far right, Louisa May Alcott on the far left, classic children’s books, Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, a set of Little House on the Prairie and Anne of Green Gables books on another shelf and a few other assorted single titles here and there.
And this is a picture of my mom in front of my folks’ car, taken in 1957. I used to know what it was, but I’ve forgotten — can anyone tell me? Thanks.
I also thought about classic toys my kids had that I also had as a kid — Mr. Potato Head, Little People, Legos, etc. But I don’t have any pictures of those handy without going through old photo albums which I don’t really have time to do today.
Happy Saturday!

Great classics you have there. I am not sure on the vehicle, but looks like the one I saw in past photos back in the 50’s too. Must have been a popular car. Have a good weekend.

Both shots have something classic in them. both are good. Great take on the topic.

Wonderful to see all your classic literature. I thought about that but mine don’t match so nicely!
No use asking me for the make of a car I’m afraid. They are just a means of getting from A to B, though I may notice the colour sometimes

As a descendant fo Dickens, (on my dad’s side) I must say I am a bit disappointed in myself for not having those classics in my hands! Great take on the theme! Thank you for visiting my hunt today

Good choices, Barbara, but I like the one of your mom the best – probably because it reminds me of my mom!
Hope our weekend has been perfectly delightful!
