Hi all  :)

I have just rescued from the rubbish bin where I volunteer,  three little books, they appear to be belonging to a young lady from the title location, they are as follows,

a little autograph book containing snippets from papers, autographs, " Jean Harlow M.G.M." , William Powell, Robert Young,  Greta Garbo, Robert Taylor, also there is a lot of personal musings and poems as you may find in a scrap book,

also two cigarette card albums, one of them is a wills card collection of hollywood stars, the other is our King and Queen, I cannot tell the name of the album book as it it wrapped in brown paper and I do not want to damage it,

I would love to try and return these items to the people they belong to but as the date given is 31/4/38, that puts them as still living,  I have the full name and address of the lady, also that of  her best friends name and address,  the only clue i can give is that the Surname is Carter,

If you are from this area and you have that Surname P.M. me. and I will give you a bit more,

Pete :) :)

Have been trying to identify the buttons.
They appear to have the Victoria Cross emblem on them. Any more thoughts. Will take some better pictures and post them.
Many thanks.

The Lighter Side / Poems
« on: Monday 21 March 16 21:25 GMT (UK)  »

Just came across this in a charity shop,

Having been honoured for deeds of high daring
Having won glory and fame-
To a quite little house in a sleeply little village
Back from air he came
Home from the air he came
Home from the air to his corner of England
Deep in a peaceful vale
Where men talked of cabbage,cattle and corn
And nobody knew his tale
Until his grandchildren requested his story
And the memories were again reborn with glory

Greatest admiration, George and Pam Howells

any ideas as to to above mentioned would would be nice,

Pete :) :)
