Slaves and gossip in Graettinger 1924 and funnies
A grainy 1924 Graettinger Times column blends a historical note on Missouri Iowa slave adverts from 1836 with a long miscellany of jokes, quotes, and breezy observations about radio, politics, fashion, and daily life. It cites names like John T. Deadman and Daniel Hines while weaving humor on Alaska maps, Lenine cigars, and weather chatter.
