Santa Cruz Mountains History

With some of the money I do make off selling my clothing, I put towards buying a little bit of History.  I have been purchasing old post cards, LP Records, posters, and nick knacks that date back to as early late 1800s. . If you have a piece of history you would like to share with site please post to my new Facebook site!
