Oh that sounds so exciting! What awesome finds you have found. You should blog about this, with pictures of course, I would love to see.

I’ve had some luck getting little tidbits from neighbours. I’ve also found little pieces of tin toys in the cracks in the attic (which looks a lot like yours), marbles, and plastic army men and cowboys and several old license plates buried in the back yard, and empty liquor bottles in the rafters of the garage (hmmm…?). I fairly certain their favorite way to store things was to hang it on a hook, their mode of home improvement was to cover it up with fake paneling, and their mode of dispelling anger was to go pound a nail into the basement or attic ceiling or wall…Hooks, paneling and random nails are everywhere! Having a sense of the history helps balance out the constant falling off of door handles and removal thousands of nails and miles of paneling. I should blog about this some time, since I’ve written half a post here ;)

Yes, I need to see this. That is super weird. I wonder what the heck these mirrors were used for… What year was your guyses house built?

Weird. I’ll have to show you next time you’re over!

I’m with you – I’d want lots of old hidden treasures! Like Harry Potter’s Room of Requirement.

Hell yeah, I’d love to. I’m pretty sure your 1940’s enumerator was the same as ours too, so I can point you in the right direction for your new house :)

I’m not a big fan of that “shabby chic” look where people leave these mirrors crusty and grody looking. Love that it’s both functional, beautiful, and a piece of your house history. I think you should keep it in the bedroom it looks so cool and sleek against your black wall!

Congrats on the find. I may have some ideas to help you research the history house. My family research nerdery is paying off as we try to learn about our new /old house. Let me know if you ever want to look through some old documents!
