- motorbreath 6y agoI was going to mention something similar to this! We've all experienced first-hand how irritating it can be when your papers start flying all over the place because the windows are open. There is a lot of interesting history behind paperweights and I would love to find some of the originals in a museum. https://www.paperweight.org/museums/ https://www.paperweight.org/museums/
