Day 277: Just a little bit of history

Old houses seem to be built from brick and newspaper. I've found more than my share of old newspaper in this place. I think it's kind of similar to the carbon dating archaeologists use. For instance, I'm pretty sure this place hasn't been decorated since the early 70's as that's when the majority of the newspaper is from.
 
The papers below are what I found in the kitchen during the tear down
 
Old .. found under the shelf covers in the kitchen


Older .. found as a plaster backing in the ceiling


Oldest .. wartime bank notice .. found behind the kitchen shelf
