 In amongst the piles of stuff that I have next to my desk is an old blue card-file that I got for $10 at a flea market in New York. Each compartment has something different stuffed inside - the first ten have military patches, the second ten bubble gum stickers and the rest have just got random bits like these tickets. I've put them in together because this is how they came out of the file.
The green ticket is a train ticket, but it doesn't say where for, which is a shame. The other small piece of paper is the seal from a packet of cigarettes but you can't tell what type/brand of cigarettes. Wow - interesting evidence abounds... The larger piece of paper is a photograph cut from a newspaper of a guy called Bobby Clarke. I've looked him up and I reckon that this is Bobby Clarke, a famous Canadian ice hockey player. There's no other mention of hockey, and no other hockey pictures in the whole file, so I don't know what made the owner of the file cut out this particular picture.
I'm not so good at spinning stories around these finds huh?
