When I was a kid, TV stations would ask, “Do you know where your children are?” at 10 PM, but they asked nothing about us when a severe thunderstorm was expected.

Another thrift store find by my SO. A ledger dated 1905 and from , Ohio that contains a lot of recipes for all kinds of things. Whoever they were they were making a lot of everything. Maybe a restaurant or bakery?

Reading through the 1912 diary that I posted an image from yesterday and found that the diarist ends each days entry with the word “Moses.” The diarists name was George Homer Zimmerman, not Moses, so I’m hoping someone might have insight as to why he would end each entry this way. Thanks! @histodons

"Although this is not an animated , the origins of animated film can be glimpsed here... Copyrighted in 1900, it was probably filmed three or four years earlier.”

Another great image from the OGS Archives: Ice harvesting in a quarry somewhere in Ohio (likely Huron or Richland County) in the early 1900s.
