Oct. 16, 1921: Among the items in the Minneapolis Tribune “Lost” classifieds - Sum of money in an envelope - Lower part of fountain pen - Automobile crank - Check amounting to $14.58 - Watch, engraved “Lillian to John” - Leather-covered loose leaf note book on arriving train - Small, tame red fox

I bet that third ad led to a lot of ... crank calls. I'll show myself out.

"Lower part of fountain pen". What? If I were into writing SF stories, this might be an interesting and deliciously strange time-line/time-warp idea connected to the fountain pen cap someone found just recently in a winter coat. Anyone feels tempted? Grab the idea and run with it. Enjoy. 🙂

This is an especially good one
