Charlene's Scrapbook

Picture

Here are some of Charlene's favorite things that she might put in the scrapbook that her Auntie Versa gave her for Christmas. If you had a scrapbook, what would you put inside it?

Picture

Can you find a photograph of Rusty? Charlene's "Dick Tracy" card game?
Soda pop bottle caps? Cereal box tops?

Picture

Charlene saves enough money and buys this toy fingerprinting set.

Picture

Charlene and her friend, Fidget, love to pop and share popcorn and tell scary stories!

Picture

Momma lets Charlene pick a new dress from the store catalog.

Charlene looks forward to the Sunday funnies. She loves to read "Dick Tracy."

Picture

Well-to-do Auntie Versa sent Charlene a subscription to "Child Life" magazine.

Picture

Charlene saves her pennies and mails away for, "Little Orphan Annie's Treasure Hunt," board game.

Picture

First player to reach the finish line wins the treasure!

Picture

Charlene's Momma and Daddy had this silly photo taken when they were first married. This was before the "Great Depression." Times were good then. Daddy had a job with the L & N Railroad.

Picture

Charlene's favorite book.

Picture

A new tablet of drawing paper is like gold to a kid like Charlene in the 1930's.

Picture

Before Charlene's best friend, Lucy Pruitt, moved to Chicago, she wanted Charlene to have, Hizzie, to remember her by.

Picture

Charlene has saved every letter, postcard, and birthday card she ever got in the mail. She's tied them together with string and puts them in a special box that she keeps under her bed.
