A Little History & News.............
Pat (Ingrasci) Nielsen brought two vintage Racine Jounal Times newspapers. She said Joe inherited some family furniture and a Cedar Chest one of the items. Their mother’s birthday is November 22 and she kept the newspaper announcing President Kennedy’s death along with many special mementos in The Cedar Chest. Joe and I enjoyed going through all these special treasures together.
* One was from July 4,1976 Celebrating America's 200th Birthday.
Red, White and Blue & American Flag outlined front and back pages
The other paper was from Nov of 1963 with the headline of John F Kennedy being assassinated.
