Once upon a time... (Old Book & Glasses) Free State, South Africa by 


This old Book and Glasses were captured in the “Hertzog Museum House” in Bloemfontein, Free State, South Africa. It belonged to President Hertzog, one of the old Presidents of South Africa.
I dedicate this photo to the people who loved him.
