Wooden Handmade Skate Guards From 1945

Marilyn Raatz Day (who is now 83 years old) skated when she was a child in Bremerton, Washington. These wooden skate guards were made by hand by her father, William F. Raatz, in 1945. Marilyn tells me her family had limited funds and could not afford to purchase skate guards, so her father made her guards instead!

  2. Hiya, I am really glad I’ve found this info. Today bloggers publish just about gossip and net stuff and this is really irritating. A good blog with interesting content, that’s what I need. Thank you for making this website, and I will be visiting again. Do you do newsletters by email?
