Vintage ler…
 

Yeah, we found an ancient issue of National Geographic in the old book store. Volume XLVIII, dated July, 1925. It’s as old as my late grandmother. Vintage shit i tell you. All of it were shipped all the way from the U.S. Most of them were taken right from the U.S. library. Some even have the library stamp.

Look July 1925
 

We bought it for RM80.00. Ours belong to someone by the name Ruth Owens *god bless her, whomever and where ever she is. Back in 1925, the issue would have cost a cheap $0.50.

Back in 1925, the brand OshKosh wasn’t carrying fashionable kids wear. It carried trunks. Trunks that we now call antiques.

The shop owner has an issue from way back in the 1880′s. That’s even older than my grandmother. It might be the very first issue. Damn. He’s auctioning it off soon. If only i have the moolah. LOL
