100 year old Strange SKETCHBOOK Tour - Antique Vintage Art
Рет қаралды 22,994
2 жыл бұрынThis week we have a rather.. unusual antique sketchbook. It's Adam's Christmas present for this year and he wanted to share it with you guys. Can anyone help us make sense of what this was used for? There's a collection of all kinds of art and poetry from as far back as 100 years ago!

The horse is indeed written in shorthand! It reads 'art in shorthand' in the bottom left. At the top it might read 'The old horse'. The horse itself is written in what might be a combination of both pitman and gregg, it's really difficult to decipher either way. And I think the music reads to never be flat (Bb), sometimes be sharp, and always be natural but I'm not that good at reading music.

Hey! I'm not fully done watching but this seems like a "Poesiealbum", I only know the German word. My mum still had them. You give them to each of your friends and every one of your friends puts a little entry so you have memories of those people! It's very lovely. Also often the people who made the entry picked the page, parents and grandparents often just wrote in the back. Edit: Also there was pre-written poetry of sayings you could use to put in them if you didn't have any ideas yourself.

I had one in elementary school (early 90s Croatia) too, we called it a "remembrance book" (spomenar). They didn't look like albums though, we mostly used small locking diaries with lined pages, not ideal to draw on lol. It was a girl thing, and I'm not sure if we even asked boys to write anything in our books. Yep the rhymes were usually not original, they were passed down.
@apafoltyn3220 2 жыл бұрын
Oh, I was surprised you didn’t know about this. When I was in school, almost everyone had a notebook like this and I’m not that old :)). I think it was very very common in past but it was still a big thing here in Czech Republic not long ago. It was called “památníček”, which means something like “memory book” in czech. You would give this to your friends, family or people you wanted to remember and they would write or draw there something for you. It was often something they wanted you to remember about them or some nice wish for your future life. The idea was that when you get older you could look back and think about people you’ve met and that may not be in your life anymore. It didn’t really matter if it was when you were leaving or not and people would often have the same “památníček” for many years, that’s why it has inconsistent dates. I have one from high school and I come back to it from time to time, it’s really nice.

“A jonquil in a bowl”. A jonquil is a flower. It’s a member of the narcissus family with daffodils. Technically, I think a jonquil is a type of daffodil. Jonquils usually have a stronger scent than daffodils, and I believe they have multiple blooms per stem while (IIRC) daffodils have only one. There’s also differences in the leaves, stems, and colors.

When I was a tiny kid, these kind of books were popular to have especially among teenagers, I think. You would lend it to the person you like and they would write a little poem, maybe make a drawing and dedication. Sometimes you would ask a friend, sometimes a cousin or sibling to decorate a page, it was not exclusively school thingy.

Yeah, they were still slightly popular in the 80s when I was a kid. Sometimes they called them an autograph album. I had one that I got from a yard sale that a few people had written in already. I wish I still had it. I remember one of the poems someone had written was, “Little Johnny loved to drink, but he will drink no more. For what he thought was H20 was H2S04.” Quite morbid. LOL

It’s really cool, I tried to fill one too but I didn’t have enough friends 😕

We used to have so called "poetry albums" which you would give to all your friends to draw or write in it, very similar to this! There were many standard poems that people used, most of them were more on the silly side though. "Lebe lustig, lebe froh, wie die Maus im Haferstroh"... 😆 but they were only used by children as far as I remember.

The different levels of cursive is so interesting since it came from a time when the writing style was more common. Some of them are so elegant it's almost illegible. But then you have some that look like a type font, super clean but readable. And then some that look like the writer probably only used cursive for their signatures 😆

I love this, its so interesting. I rescued a bunch of my grandmothers stuff that my Aunt was going to throw out. I thought I was being weird, now I don’t! I used an old (unused) photo album as a sketchbook. There was a bunch of old post cards and greeting cards from the early to mid 1900’s. It’s interesting to see the old illustrations, especially the saucy and humorous ones. A lot of the post cards were from my Great great grandparents vacations. Some of the scenery on the post cards no longer excise! One was from a Great great Aunt of an accident in 1909, of a drill at the Fire Chief’s Convention in Detroit Michigan… it was a photo post card of a horse drawn fire engine, one of the poor horses fell. I use the post cards for inspiration and someday want to do a project based around them.

I think you got an ancient "Poesie"-Album. We used to exchange them between friends and everyone made an entry, so you have a memory of your friends. You can include drawings, poems and we used to also glue in little printed pictures, some were even glittery. Like a Poetry-album, but it is not only poetry. I had one too.

Here are the words you were struggling with throughout the video: 5:30 "a jonquil in a bowl." A jonquil is a type of flower. 5:45 "for they brought us nearer to God." 7:58 "every one of her sows must fear and none that hears it dare forget." 8:27 "to the host behind" 14:25 "Why sit down in gloom and darkness with your grief to sup? When you drink life's bitter tonic, smile across the cup." 17:30 "And you no more I see" 19:26 "Never b flat. Sometimes b sharp. Always b natural." 20:18 "is a fine thing to do." 20:27 "Sad or sunny musing is largely in the choosing.... _is_ brave work and true." 20:52 "A kiss of the sun for pardon." 21:53 "reproof"

Omg I had one similar in middle school in early 2000 in Romania.We called them "oracol" ,we would have pages with questions that friends and school colleagues would answer and then you would give that oracle one person at a time to personalized one Page how they wanted,and they would put secret messages in the corners and fold them. Brings back memories!

The 'play up and play the game' is from a Henry Newbolt poem called 'Vitai Lampada' which is an odd thing linking schoolboy cricket and WW1 soliders mentality.

also, this reminds me a lot of a yearbook, or some kind of journal that was passed down from a mother to her daughter? it's like a combination photo album and poetry book

14:35 - I think that says "[...] with your grief to sup [short for 'supper'], when you drink life's bitter tonic, smile across the cup". That person's "p" letter is really weird, but I think that makes sense.

this was so sweet-. It reminds me of a sort of memory book that was in our class teddy’s backpack, where we would write and do art, put photographs and other memorabilia in when it was our turn on the list to bring him home for the weekend back in primary school It’s also quite interesting to hear about how cursive was an old school thing for you. I’m twenty-five, and had cursive in school for years, but that’s Norwegian education for you

I think these are leaving school books. Evelyn's father gave it to Evelyn in the 20s. Then Evelyn gave it to her daughter Sylvia in 1947.

The end of the poem at 5:53 said "for they brought us nearer god"! Just thought I'd help out since I've had cursive engrained in my mind since elementary school
