about the find:

I found this pressed maple leaf in a book published in 1936. It's a book about "helpful hints for the housewife".

The maple leaf has a date written on it, "2.XI,54", I'm almost surprised it didn't just crumble to dust when I touched it.

wow, that leaf is over 50 years old! So tantalising, what that date represents, what memory is locked up with that leaf!
