We're getting Black Friday ads here, and we don't even have Thanksgiving to blame it on!
I dug out an old book that I was going to use for show and tell. The spine says Trip Book. Inside are listed the receipts for trips from Chippawa, Ont to Buffalo but with extra lines showing Niagara Falls and Queenston. I think it was a railway register, the dates are May 1847 to what looks like July 1851.
However someone has used the first few pages (10) as a scrapbook for mostly cartoons cut from newspapers. One of these has a date of 1871. So these are older than my grandfather.
For those of you who've been to Niagara Falls, Chippawa is the area from Marineland south.
