Roger That

So here is something that I am keeping.  In fact, I've bought additional stuff to support keeping this object.  But it was a mindful decision.

At some point, probably over a decade ago, I was buying and selling a lot of silverware on eBay.  I bought a page cut from a 1953 magazine advertising 1881 Rogers silverplate patterns, thinking, one of these days I'll frame this and put it on my wall.  Well, yesterday was that day.  I went to Aaron Brothers, bought a frame and a matte (and might I say I did a good job picking the colors) and came home and fiddled with the lot a good 45 minutes to get it the way I wanted it.  This morning I put it up on the wall in my kitchen, and I think it looks damned good, if I do say so myself.
