You can't expect such a classy dame, that's seen the Elephant, to go back to the farm.
Wait, MN? When I saw the first picture, I thought she had a beautiful smile that reminded me of Betty White. Rose Nylund was patterned after your Mom?
This stuff should be in the National Archives or Smithsonian. Antiques Road show would call them, "National Treasures", and I'd wholeheartedly agree.
Thanks a million for sharing them.
