This was when having a family that saves everything came in handy! I went through my Mom's house and found these things all from the turn of the century. I went with 1908 because that is the last date printed on the record.

6 - Good effort to meet the Challenge (be it in the true time capsule sense or just a photo of this put into a time capsule). Criticism; whilst I do like the soft colors and the way they complement each other, in my opinion if you had perhaps added some more contrast, possibly even a softening (not sure) it would have made this a better photograph in my opinion. Perhaps also not so tight a crop, or just a different/sharper angle. You have some 'character' in this shot which I like, but again, would like to see that emphasized more, somehow. Looks pretty 'authentic' to your year to me, so well done.
