Tucked inside The Complete Works of Shakespeare, Volume II by William Shakespeare

Reunited — it went back to its owner or their family.

Lesley Forrest bought the second volume of The Complete Works of Shakespeare at a Durango thrift store and found a 1988 photograph of five men at the summit of Grays Peak, one of Colorado's fourteeners. She posted it to a local Facebook group. Within an hour all five had been named — three of them, it turned out, still worked together — and she arranged to send the picture back.
