” on top of a turtle brooch”

I was unaware that turtles even wore brooches back then.

“I was unaware that turtles even wore brooches back then.”

They needed help with the catch.

Someone should sign them up for the Cubs.

Reconstructions of two of the elite textile examples found in the Bjerringhøj mound in
Denmark. (The National Museum of Denmark)

[BenLurkin]

Only the very best turtles.

” The grave of the deceased woman …”

Odd that the author felt a need to point out that the woman was dead.

[BenLurkin]

“Where we found the dead broad” wasn’t good enough for the editor.

A lot classier than stickers.

Best dressed turtle in town.

I think the embroidery was a Minnesota Vikings logo. Long time fan with season tickets

[gundog]

It looks like a Western Pond Turtle. They’re kinda plain. Still, they’d probably put you in jail for having one, with or without stickers.
