If you have a photo of a neat find from your house or place of work please send an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail.com thanks. Please let me know where/what neighborhood you found it in too. Thanks.
Thanks to Erin for sharing this absolute awesomeness: “a DC address book from 1896 that my mom had found.
The book has old advertisements and addresses of the “elite residents of Washington” and lists “receiving days” for some homes when visitors were preferred. In the back of the book it lists the names of various club’s members (i.e Cosmos Club members when it was a gentleman’s club, etc).”
