Signatures of History!
In 1986, Ann Richardson inherited a suitcase full of autographed handkerchiefs that her grandmother began collecting in the early 1930s.
Ann has continued the hobby, gathering more than 6,000 signed hankies from notable figures such as Helen Keller, Babe Ruth, Orville Wright, Amelia Earhart, and Judy Garland & Toto.
Residents were in awe of the remarkable collection and loved the history Ann shared.
Thank you, Ann, for visiting and sharing this unique piece of the past with us.
