Hello,
My grandfather after WWII was an old post master or he ran the local post office that was built sometime in the late 1800's. When a new post office was built he took(he did pay for them) a bunch of stuff that wasn't going to the new location such as old pictures, chair, books, and the biggest desk that was ever made. Most of the stuff was donated several years ago to the local museum and they dated from the late 1800's. I got these old prints that came from the post office but I'm having a problem dating them. I think he had them reframed sometime in the 1980s.
I'm thinking of getting some none glare glass.
thanks,
barry

General Jean Baptiste Meynier(1749-1813)
Lannes would join Meynier at the Battle of Dego 15 April 1796. I don't know if the general died of illness or was killed in battle.
The document is to the Minister of War on calvary matters.

Hello Alex,
Everytime I tried to fix the water it just got worse.
In case anyone is looking for a color program this is the one I downloaded. It's easy once you figure out what is going on.

Hello Dan,
I hope that some day I'll have all the Marshals.
This just arrived today. I'm not sure how old it is but it does have some age. Nice little item on Saragossa.
Saragossa, Spain "Our Lady of the Pillar"
40A.D. After Christ's death, ressurection, and ascension, the holy Apostles began to spread the message throughout the land: and eventually into the Roman Empire. St. James the Apostle travelled as far west as to a small village called Saragossa, in Spain. While there, James became disheartened because of the failure of his mission. While James was in deep prayer, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to him and gave him a small wooden statue of herself, and a colum of jasper wood. She said:
"This place is to be my house, and this image and column shall be the title and altar of the temple that you shall build. "
About a year later, James arranged for a small chapel to be built in honor of the Virgin Mary. This would be the first church in the entire world to be dedicated to Mary. The jasper column and the wooden statue can still be seen on special occasions at the church that houses them.
