In going through a trunk that belonged to my brother Mike I found a lot of newspaper clippings, postcards, and other souvenirs collected by my family. Some are completely new to me. Some I had not seen in decades. All I would like to share with you.

Mike's photos
My brother was a world traveler, an artist, and he had a good eye for photos. As I am going through his photos I will be sharing my favorites with you. I am afraid that Mike never had the time to label his photos so I can't pinpoint the locations. Some are from South America, some are from Africa, and some are from Morocco.
More to come.

Danish Bathing Machines
This postcard is from Denmark. My parents lived in Copenhagen in the late 1950's. As a kid I loved this postcard. Mom told me that the horses pulled these machines into the water while people were inside changing into their swimsuits. Then you were able to get directly into the water. It was more discreet I guess, I don't know why my brother's name is written on the card. Maybe he was the one who wanted to buy it in the first place,
