As I was soaking some of my grandma's postage stamps to remove the envelope paper, I was able to salvage a few lovely bits of security patterns circa 1960. So many of the security envelopes I receive these days are black or grey, so I love the variety of blues and aquas I found.
There were a few in tact security envelopes in the stamp box as well, and this one is by far my favorite.
When I first pulled it out, I immediately heard A Christmas Story quote in my head: "A can of Simoniz." I watch it every holiday season without fail. Last year, I finally read the book by Jean Shepherd, In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash, upon which the movie was based. I highly recommend it if you love the movie.
