In the summer of 2005 Rouse happened upon a unique find in several vintage shops in Providence, RI; a collection of over 100 postcards all addressed to Millicent Jones. The collection spans 1960 to 1994 and includes one postcard written and signed by Millicent herself but never mailed. Currently Rouse is in the process of digitizing the postcard collection as well as transcribing the handwritten messages in order to develop a virtual archive online.

A creative essay by Rouse about this project was published in the journal Public in 2006.
