The Powderhorn Clues

     This was found, like a bookmark, inside a volume I was reading by Randy Alcorn. The book is entitled, "Heaven", and this was stuck in chapter 44. The chapter section is titled, "Will We Travel in Time?" I suggest you purchase this book and read it.

     This sheet of stamps was inside the brochure and had the following written on the back:
At Big Powder Horn you'll find a smaller powderhorn. Inside the powderhorn you'll find a very unusual watch. Put it in your pocket so you don't lose it. Find a way to bring it to me. It's a missing piece to my future.  A.W.D.

Visiting Relatives in the Past

Corky and I time-traveled to visit some of his relatives in Clinton, Ohio. Found out that Grampa Velveeta was the inventor of the clip-on tie. (actually a bow tie - which is fixed to the front of the shirt collar by a metal clip. Alternately, the tie may have a band around the neck fastened with a hook and eye.) It was great fun and the food was amazing!

Another Nigel Pettibone Mystery

According to the hand written message on the back of this photo, which arrived in the Calvinistic Cartoons offices earlier today, Nigel Pettibone has been accidentally transported back into the past. We don't know what's going on.
The photographer signed his name E. Loy Murlocks and promises to bring Nigel back to the present time within the next twenty years.  

Fan Photo from Phil Favinfoofle

Thanks Phil for sending this photo of me in my old Calvinistic Cartoonmobile. This brings back memories and plenty of them! For finding this photo in your grandfather's attic, I am sending you a check for $7,000.

Shorpy is a great site for viewing vintage photos. If you want a real sense of history visit this blog often. I love studying the faces of the many individuals who have passed from this life into the next. (see if you can spot two special people in the photo above) 

Fan Photo from Hagmyre Crumpetts

This 1921 photo was sent in by Hagmyre Crumpetts of Pimento, Arizona. He discovered it while browsing the book sale at the local library. His discovery has earned him $7,000 and a book of coupons from the Dollar Tree.
