What is your most treasured keepsake/momento?

Well Debijs, I'll doubt that any one can top your favorite keepsake.

You answered your own question.

But let me share my favorite memento anyway: My mother used to write to me on pink air mail paper. I never threw any letters out, but I didn't carefully file them either. When she died, suddenly those pink letters became very valuable to me.

I discovered one of those letters that I had stashed into a drawer and found as I pulled it out, it tore. A bottle of glue had oozed out and stuck a tiny piece of that paper to the bottom of the drawer. When I

pulled that tiny speck of paper out it had only one word on it!

"Heart"

It was as if my mother was telling me: "take heart"

I keep that snippet of paper folded up inside a locket that my mother gave to me just before I left for the United States. I treasure that

snippet of paper very much indeed.

Oh!! I am a rubbish collector as told by my wife.....Why keep all the 30 years old items?

!st the autograph book done up in 1960, my pass-out year and all the pals written articles & signatures. In 1978, I added up all the Chinese Movie Stars of Hong Kong (around 30 of the top-stars at that time) when visited 3 movie studios. Now I am matching them up with their photos to make a poster set for show.

2nd is a the wedding gift of Prince Charles & Lady Diana, a watermark portrait in a souvenir card (limited issue)........a valuable collection.

Both are treasure to me.
