Welcome to EverythingCroton, a collection of all things
Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in
short, EVERYTHING CROTON.
The late Marion Costello was generous in so many ways; a lover of the theatre, she provided Everything Croton with many copies of her “vintage” Playbills for scanning--and sharing. Stretching from the early 60's to the mid 1980's, we are constantly updating the flickr set for your enjoyment (click here).

But Marion was also an avid National Geographic
reader—and she was always passing on items to be scanned and shared with others
here at EverythingCroton—in particular, this set of American Wildflower
botanical illustrations from the 1915 edition of the Geographic.
It took us weeks to find the envelope of carefully sliced pages, but we finally located
it last night. Click on the photo, then click here to see the rest.
At last, a name for those little blue things that pop up everywhere: common dayflower. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great lady. Marion, The gift that keeps on giving.
