"Attic Treasures"

The attic of an old movie theatre held many treasures and many memories. Notice the empty movie reels in the old wooden desk chair. The flags have 48 stars! Some of the mounted posters to the right of the chair have advertisements of the old movies with Kirk Douglas, Gretta Garbo, and Clark Gable. The dust had not been disturbed for ages... I would guess maybe 30 or more years.
