Relics

[ashetlandpony]

I found these old payroll checks and the address sign amidst the ruins of my father's factory when it was demolished in 1996. Aside from a few other small items that I've held on to from those days, these relics are all that remain of my father's entire life in business.

May not seem like a lot of money, but according to the CPI inflation calculator, these 1948 checks would be roughly equivalent to $450 today.










The same sign can be seen over the door of Dad's office, 60 years ago.
