My grandma's present!

Ok... this is probably my best present ever! I'm still over excited about it and I just can't stop lookig at the pictures! Like I said before, my grandma found the album in a second hand store (gotta love those, right? ;D ) and she said it was very very cheap and she immediately thought of me. And then she said that most of the pictures were of smiling girls and so she bought it!
Some of the cards are just copies, other ones aren't, I LOVE IT XD

Well, why the smiling girls thing? Well, I LOVE edwardian actresses, they are gorgeous, and when they smile it just makes me smile too XD
How stupid that sounds?  But their smiles are so contagious! I don't care if the woman is ugly, or her teeths are ugly, but I smile with them! I'm such a dork =P

And my mom just roll her eyes and gives me a Squidward's expression, because she thinks half of those women are ugly and look the same. And they don't!!! >.<

But well, those are just a few of the cards I have. I couldn't scan all of them, so the ones I didn't I found it on google =P
Oh, and most cards didn't have any date.
