Groomz! SS success!!
On Rob's Island Groomz and I cemented our status as soul mates when we discovered our mutual love for a little known old standard called "Second Hand Rose." My grandma used to sing it, and it was on her CD. After Groomz and I sang and danced a bit, we put on my Grandma singing it (on my iPod) and joined in. It was a delightful moment in time, and I sing the song often, sometimes imagining myself doing a little soft shoe combo with Groomz and Grandma. It's a wonderful thing.
Anyway, Groomz found me what appears to be a very vintage-y either album print or old-timey ad for a Second Hand Rose album. It's delightful on its own, but even more so for all the awesome memories it evokes. LOVE!
Where did you find such a thing Groomz? It's so awesome and special and us. I'll smile every time I see it.
You're the bomb yo.

Love!
I believe the illustrator is Erte. I may or may not own several Erte coloring books.

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
Awwwww, I'm a little sniffly. That's one of my favorite memories from Rob's Island, making breakfast and listening to your grandma sing to us.

YAY! I'm so glad you like it. It's actually sheet music. The person I got it from told me it was from the 20's, but I forgot to check the date before I put it in the frame. From what I could figure out on line, it was either from '21 or from the 60's.
You still have another gift on its way. Hopefully it will make it there soon.

I'm floored. What an awesome gift! It's a gorgeous picture, and the meaning behind it makes it even better.
I'm half tempted to make sure Groomz draws me for SS next year.

I drove my mom completely INSANE with that song when I was in 4th grade. I played it over and over and over while I tried to come up with my own dance routine with tap shoes I borrowed from a friend (I never took dance, so you can imagine how good that routine must have been, and why I had to borrow the shoes). I had to do it in the kitchen because it was the only room with a hard floor that was big enough to shake my groove thang. Plus it had delightful accoustics.
