In 1992, a Dublin, Ireland homeowner discovered this 100 year old letter to Santa Claus in his fireplace. The letter, written in 1911, managed to survive with minor damage, given its' age and exposure to the fireplace's use. In that era, fireplaces were built with two shelves in the interior. The letter was found on one of the shelves.
History Thru The Lens
Welcome to my blog site!
My interests in history and photography come together in this photoblog. Featured in this blog are historical pictures such as the above photo of the RMS Olympic and her sister ship the RMS Titanic, which would prove to be the last one of them together side by side. Hopefully all who visit will enjoy it and recommend the site to their friends.
