Postcard feature: She sells seashells

Remember this old tongue-twister?  When I first heard it as a child, it defied not only pronunciation, but my sense of logic.  Who would SELL seashells by the seashore, when people could just pick their own up for free?

Since then, I've been to the seashore many times and I've found some lovely shells.  I've also found that people will definitely buy seashells by the seashore, from people who sell them there.

Here's the finder's note:
Found in a book at the Warrenton Community Library in Warrenton, OR! Nettie.

Thanks, Nettie, for sending it back to us!  This is one of my favorites. :)
