    This neat small sign is from a funeral home in Brooklyn New York. Has the old time phone numbers. Has a glass thermometer on the side. I just love the picture. Other than I'm not sure if she's an angel taking the children to the other side. Any one know what time frame they used these old time numbers? Thanks for looking!

      I think 1950s. It sure could be guidence crossing over But that strikes we parents as depressing... Nice sentemental advertising item tho. I believe in angels. Tha would be guardian angel.

      My Grandmother had a print like this in her dining room for as long as I can remember. As children we were told that she was the Guardian angel of the children as was guiding them safely across that nightmare of a "bridge" She moved "to town" in her early 80's and started having garage sales. I find myself drawn to things I would have found in her home.

      Thanks so much for your kind words! I really like this picture. It's touching, and we always want to believe there are guardian angels. I do think they watch over small children more so. And i as well am always drawn to things that would of been in my grandmothers house.
