"New" Old Stuff.... a good word... stuff... we have raised the roofs in our storage sheds (note plural .. roofs .. sheds ) by 2ft and now it is time to put STUFF out into the ether.. and into the shop.. and shed (not the ones with roofs we raised) tears as we attempt over the coming months to loosen the bonds on our collective collecting and get rid of some old stuff so we can buy some new old stuff (thus lowering the collective roofs)(for a short time).... get the picture???

cigarette cards ..the one pictured to the left is pretty interesting .. Australia Day on the 30th of July- During World War I, 30 July 1915 became Australia Day: a way of raising funds for the war by drawing on Australians' pride in their soldiers' achievements at Gallipoli and on their growing confidence in being Australian.
