S wall embedded text and images

the opening up of the S wall has provided an opportunity to upgrade the insulation to material with a better R-value.  the backing sheet on the old insulation was printed with these instructions, not explicitly dated though one might make some inferences based on style:

is this a Morris Minor?

Have you found any notes or treasures in your walls?

last year's finds included a buried wall (http://www.livejournal.com/~15_the_circle/5024.html), eye bolts for abandoned cable bracing (http://www.livejournal.com/~15_the_circle/2005/06/26), a walled-over heat register (http://www.livejournal.com/~15_the_circle/11192.html), an uncompleted yellowjacket nest (http://www.livejournal.com/~15_the_circle/6038.html) and lots of cracked acorn hulls left over from squirrel feasts of yore.  one might also include in this category the information from paint shadows left by details removed many years ago and which has helped guide the restoration effort. 

nowhere near as many artefacts have turned up this year, at least not yet.

I like the yellowjacket nest the best.
