Toronto man finds 70-year-old mail and letters wedged in floorboards of historic home Toronto

But for one homeowner in Toronto this is exactly what happened after realizing his floorboard had been hoarding mail for nearly 70 years.

He tells blogTO that his wife noticed some mail fell into a tiny crack beneath the floorboards and ended up uncovering 13 pieces of mail ranging from 1952 to the early 1990s. Notable finds include a 1952 entry card to the Kiwanis Music Festival for a Miss Sheila Jacobs, a $6 un-cashed cheque from the Government of Canada to Mrs. Rita Czerniak from 1957 and a election brochure from NDP candidate Dan Heap from 1984.

Other pieces of mail includes a 1955 Life Magazine subscription brochure, handwritten letters and recipes and a 1952 dividend payment from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company to a Mr. William Jacobs.
