PamG Valued Member United States 278 Posts	Posted 01/01/2019 09:56 am Thanks again all! I knew it was something but, wasn't sure what. As far as "no added value" that doesn't matter to me. I collect them all and would never sell anything. If they appear interesting to me I keep them. When I don't know why I post them! This one I will keep anyway! I do appreciate everyone who helps me!
