Popular Post 6Foot2 Posted June 9, 2015 Popular Post Posted June 9, 2015 Link: 100-year-old blackboard drawings found in Oklahoma school - Boing Boing http://i2.wp.com/boingboing.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/chalkboard1.jpeg During renovations, a high school in Oklahoma City recently discovered a series of old chalkboards under their existing ones, covered in writing that had remained untouched since 1917. The preserved boards include lessons on music, math, and even the history of the Pilgrims. It's a fascinating little time capsule from an earlier era, particularly since it was one that was always meant to be wiped away. 5
woodham Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 so the proof is that the board had 1917 written on it?
Miscbrah Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 missing 2, 3 and 31 ??? Pre-decimalisation? Great pics though. What IS she doing to that turkey??
supawat1 Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Pre-decimalisation? Great pics though. What IS she doing to that turkey?? It's December, so she might be thinking of Christmas dinner
LeMarchand Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 It's December, so she might be thinking of Christmas dinner Or thinking of Thanksgiving, when Americans eat turkey to remember being saved by the native peoples. Who they then went on to pretty much wipe out. That "square" writing looks hinky to me.
