    I love these old autograph books. My mom brought me my grandmother and great-grandmother's autograph books at Christmas time. Reading what my grandfather wrote in my grandmother's autograph book was hilarious! Who knew he was a poet!

    "As i write this little verse
    Do not think of me and curse"

    Anne replied
    "I'm yours till butter flies"

    Like old old school emails, with paper and no LOL or IMHO's

    I still have my fifth grade autograph book. Remember how we would fold the individual sheets almost like origami. It's in storage so I can't pull it out.

    I do remember one page.

    Roses are red
    Violets are blue
    You look like a b 52.

    This was from a guy who had a crush on me. So much for fifth grade romance.
