Most of the doors had these rub marks from being opened and closed every day for 126 years.

Wow. Now that is one old door. This is almost an optical illusion...it sort of looks like the door is in FRONT of the wall instead of flush with it.

COOL picture!

when I was looking for a house, I looked at a house that was 120 years old and it had the same keyholes. Must have been the style back then
