Those last few days were like a taste of freedom. After months and seasons of going to school every day, we could see the light at the end of the tunnel – and boy, did it feel amazing. I have incredibly strong memories of the last days of school throughout my elementary years. And while those years are now many (many!) in the past, I hazard to guess that the last days of school in the 1970s aren’t too dissimilar from the ones kids experience today. --- Get the latest from It's a Southern ...| It's a Southern Thing

I just took over an office from someone who left Hickey Freeman. It was the office occupied by former designers and executives of the company and hadn't been cleaned out in, well, ages. It's in the corner of a suite of offices which have remained largely unchanged since they were built in 1912. I figured I might find some little treasures hidden in boxes, forgotten.
