Great relic! I play cribbage; does anyone else here?

How neat but I think the honeymoon $$$ will be better spent!

A friend taught Hubby and I cribbage but it has been years since we played! He and his wife moved and we don't have anyone to play with anymore! It's fun!!!

 

[Keiri]

well, yes. But could you imagine holding something made in Andersonville? Something someone spent so much time with, helping them keep their sanity?

 

[AshleyMel]

Of course! It is a unique piece of history! I was only speaking from the standpoint if one had to choose!
Now, if it was a quilt....

Congrats on getting married!! Yes, I have seen this, I've been watching The Horse Soldier website for another item, that, in two weeks, when I am out there if it is still available, I intend to make mine...

Starting Saturday talking about weddings, @Keiri , first and one in a few hours? Bound to be a good day. Well, what a wonderful one up North for your family. Have a delightful day!

AND thanks for this, Keiri. It's so hard to convey how much Clara did those awful years- her Andersonville work needs more attention. I smell a thread!

Do you folks think it's bound to appreciate in value any as the years go by? I can justify it if it's an investment

Sentimental value, at the very least....
