These still life images represent life in former years.  Most of the materials come from the Rutherford farm.  All of the images include similar items such as:

- A background using old barn boards

- A doily crocheted by Neil's mother

- Dried roses

- Dishes that Neil's mother was given by her Aunt Mollie.  Aunt Mollie never liked the dishes because when she took eggs to the store to trade for groceries, the store owner gave her these dishes instead.
