Well I think it's cool!

It certainly is! Would you be interested in an officer's examination book from 1914 complete with maps of historic battlefields?

Haha! No :( I have a loathe for military paraphenalia.

I would totally have an interest in those dressforms! But hey, no pressure, just saying...
Sounds like a really great discovery. Thanks for sharing. Hope i see you over break.

Well there are three of them. They are just the torso, and they are really odd and tapered at the waist like a dapper gentleman from 1912 should be shaped I suppose. I will try to take some photos this weekend and post them. The prospect of putting on my overalls and dustmask and crawling through the creepiest of attics on the face of the planet is my exam-time carrot. No joke. It is a bit of a dream come true. I am sure you can imagine how giddy I was when Jared first took me up there. Like a little girl was I. I think I was tittering and giggling quite a bit. Hey, Jared is in Montreal right now! I am sure he will stop by.
