I have kept diaries & journals since I was 12 years old & am always amazed to see how my handwriting has changed over the years when I go back & read some of my entries - how very different it is today from what it was all those years ago - or even how changed it is from even 10 years ago. Hopefully handwriting won't die out completely. A perfect scenario for a novel or movie would be the loss of handwriting as a communication medium, & then all the computers in the world stop working!La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7396178747528220061.post-7168939954032318352015-12-06T19:15:27.494-05:002015-12-06T19:15:27.494-05:00I have a large collection of vintage postcards 192...I have a large collection of vintage postcards 1920-1970s that my grandparents received and then saved no matter who sent them.
