Title: Old Newspaper
Post by: GreenFrost on June 10, 2012, 10:10:34 AM

I have many old newspaper from the 1800's, the paper was called The Weekly Union.

Any ideas if these are worth any value? Couldn't find on e-bay or google.

All of the papers are also signed in ink it seems, you can see the bleed on the back of the paper.

Here are some pictures.

Thanks I have them wrapped and stored. I hope I have them stored properly. They are in a chest in plastic.

I am really confused by this post. GreenFrost has the papers and Greenacres has them stored?
Am I missing something? Is our mod taking on a new identity?
