I just found a photograph from 2006 in a book titled "Ten Centuries of Spanish Poetry." It may be of sentimental value to the person who had it in the book, so I would like to reunite the photo with its owner. It shows a man in a cowboy hat standing next to a wood baby crib with a Winnie the Pooh theme. If this is your photo or a photo of your family member, please have them contact Sylvia in the library.
Note: This is NOT an April fool
