Nialle and I made the neatest discovery today when we found out that the local antique store in town bought out an antique store in Doesburg, Holland. There are a lot of prints and postcards from Doesburg, not to mention gorgeous antiques!
Seeing as my family is from the town of Doesburg and my maiden name is Van Doesburg, I just couldn't pass these goodies up!
an old print of the town...
it has yellowed and has some water damage, but I think that adds to the charm!
a newer print (from 1989) - not an antique, but still beautiful
and my favorite, a postcard of the town of Doesburg from 1899 - it has a 2 1/2 cent stamp!
