Passed Time - Serendipity: St. Georges Delaware

Serendipity: St. Georges Delaware

As I researched the people who once owned the Easter card posted on Passed Time, serendipity stepped in and this postcard sent to "Hanneh" Swan came up for sale. Swan, who received the postcard in June of 1907, was a resident of St. Georges, Delaware and one of the subjects in the Easter Day blog.

As shown by this postcard, "Uncle Rob" was either sharing his trip to the Armory in Syracuse, N.Y., or making arrangements to meet Swan there on "Fridy 8 PM."

The postcard, No. 2946, was distributed by the Hugh C. Leighton Company (1906-1909) of Portland Maine and printed in Frankfurt am Main in Germany.

I was already tickled at finding the card when I did, but its location added another amusing layer--I bought it from a dealer in Canada. Best, Pat

I believe that you have acquired a very rare postcard. According to this one of the rarest because of the content it has. I really appreciate the work you do, to collect history through various objects.

Anniversary collection was heavily Buy Yeezy Boost 700 Replica bootlegged and since then there has been a steady stream of fakes coming from Asia, but never that many that have to really worry about buying them by accident. Vintage shoes haven’t been faked; - meaning that no-one (to my knowledge) has attempted to remake old shoes retrospectively.

The sneakers should fit inside the box, if the Yeezy Antlia Non-Reflective Imitation sneakers are too big for the box then that's a sign that box wasn't meant for the sneakers, unless the seller specifies original box isn't included then this should be a red flag of fake sneakers. Also do some research on what the box should look like and pay attention to every detail.

A Kanye West gospel album – with an accompanying film by Nick Knight set in James Turrell’s Roden Crater – is an intriguing prospect for anybody who believes in the power of catharsis, a potential cleansing baptism Fake Yeezy Yecheil Non-Reflective after his hurtful Maga hat posturing, to wash away the perceived sin. What’s Christianity about, if not redemption? But Jesus Is King is too slight a record, too lacking in substance, to offer any sense of purification or real insights into West’s mind. What we get is 27 minutes of perfunctory religious discussion that tell us little of God’s place in the life of this one believer and almost nothing of God’s place in the modern world.

The perforations on the heel of the real pair are crisp and well defined. However, the fake pairs perforations are not overly spherical fake supreme air force 1 and not as defined, with suede hair frizzing around the edges. This is probably due to the fake factory using poor-quality tools.
