Of note
Notes Lizzie Borden Society Forum member, book collector, and author Michael Brimbau, on the six Maplecroft estate books up for sale on eBay this week: “Too bad the Lizzie books up for bid are not books of value in their own right or an author of interest or desirability such as Poe, Twain or even […]
Gorgeous
Young Vintage B&W Elizabeth Montgomery photo. Check out this Vintage B&W photo of the late great actress Elizabeth Montgomery, probably taken in the late 50’s, pre-“Bewitched”.

Unique new york
This is a neat find. 1961 Lizzie Borden photo book release print ad. I have never seen one like it before on eBay. But then I have only been a member since 1998. This is an original 1961 print ad for Simon and Schuster publishers, promoting the new Edward D. Radin book, “Lizzie Borden: The […]
Lizzie – Dickinson connection
William Schley-Ulrich tells me that the inscription pasted above the Maplecroft seal in this eBay sale Nancy Stair- Elinor M Laine Owned by Lizzie Borden 1905 is from Emily Dickinson. It is a lovely poem, don’t you think? And if you know anything about the life of Dickinson (1830-1866), it has a bittersweet connotation. THERE […]
In the shade
Pretty postcard.
Mug
I have one of these and it is my favorite coffee mug. As a matter of fact, I am using mine right now! I like that it is light in weight yet sturdy. I hate really heavy coffee mugs. This sale, LIZZIE BORDEN Mug from actual home Fall River Mass is nice and inexpensive at […]

Google Earth Borden House
This is a google earth of 92 Second St. The satellite image shows that the Leary Press is still there, even though that building was torn down last year. I will update the film when the new images without the press are taken by the government. And of course, google earth thinks that 92 Second […]

Lizzie on my mind
I ran across this January 3, 2005, blog entry by the author Andrea Seigel, author of To Feel Stuff and Like the Red Panda. It is a thoughtful story about how Lizzie Borden haunts her thoughts and creative life. She describes in vivid detail her reactions to the Lizzie Borden Had an Axe documentary that […]
Come to Rochester, or else
Maybe Fall River could use something like this to advertise their fair city.
