The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Part 4
Letters, envelopes, and snapshots from the Moon-Sammiet family collection, preserved in a wooden keepsake box, follow a serviceman's Pacific crossing and his correspondence with Marianne Sammet in Richmond, California. Accounts of storms at sea, Japanese language lessons aboard ship, and hopes of marriage after the war sit alongside home-front images of a 1930s Ford coupe.
