A long-lost handbag has been returned to its owner after 65 times, all thanks to a successful social media campaign.
The Greater Clark County Schools in Indiana posted photographs of the black pocketbook on its Facebook page last week, expecting social media consumers to help them track down onetime student Martha Ina Ingham, who apparently lost her purse in 1954.
The clutch was detected while works were annihilating the Jeffersonville High School building in order to make way for a new elementary school being built at the site.
Ingham graduated from the school in 1955 and would be in her early 80 s, WLKY reported.
