I lost my mom last week, post something from 1939...

Well, my mom passed away unexpectedly a week ago, so please feel free to post something from her birth year, 1939. She never collected coins (though she did save pennies for me), but this is more for me anyway...

 

Here is a starter:

My condolences on your loss. My mom passed in 2005, and she too was born in 1939. I don't collect coins, but maybe your mom read one of these when she was a wee lass...

I Don't have any coins from 1939 either. On behalf of your mom, I will post a few rare comics from 1939 (about 1 year after Superman's first app.)

My sincere condolences. I lost my mother last August after a long illness. She was also born in 1939!
