Found a nice pile a few hours ago in my leisure, so far I've dug out a few nice things including this original Dear Abby article from May 11, 1972 autographed by Abigail Van Buren herself! A particularly interesting article from the time where Abby gives advice to some girls who are worried about their parents not approving of their brother's interracial marriage. From what I can tell the person who got the autograph was a frequent flier (as there are tons of travel related artifacts mixed in with this lot) Abby must have coincidentally been on the same flight, hence the "(in flight weeeee!)" message lol ![Cheesy :D :D](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/cheesy.gif)

an old advertisement poster,
and some sort of medieval looking drawing (same lion as on the crest on the chest, maybe some sort of ancient family emblem). Records show the Forzano family living in NYC as early as 1870. Anybody know how to translate the inscription?
