It looks like someone needs to host a board game night soon!
Even though I grew up on floppy disks, I have to admit I've never used one of these before. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a pair of old 5.25” and 8.5” floppy discs. Nice, huh?
Who loves reading old newspapers? Well, how about something from 1917? This person found old newspapers when they were renovating an old apartment. They talk about the German-Austrian invasion of Romania and other WWI topics.
Wow!
Who else is fascinated by old, cool-looking furniture, huh? Well, if you enjoy that sort of thing, you'll definitely get a kick out of this rattan piece here. Apparently, this is what is called a "gossip bench." How fitting is that? Ha, ha!
The person who found this gem has been on the lookout for it for quite some time now. Apparently, these '70s Christmas trees are hard to come by, alright. I'm happy to see they scored this for only $3.
Are you into stuff from the '60s? Well, if you are, you'll probably appreciate this nice find here. Somebody found this '60s Zenith clamshell record player in a thrift store for only $20. That's a great score. Am I right?
Collectors of vintage stuff from the '70s would be thrilled to find these unique radios. I love the color of the second one. What do you think? I think it's a pretty good score, huh? I would be into that.
I wish I could score an old TV for a good price or perhaps even free, hee-hee. People have turned them into cool-looking terrariums, so what do you think about that idea? I would love to make one.
They don't make razors as good as they used to, huh? So if you were lucky enough to find these old gems, I would hold on to them if I were you. Isn't that so cool or what?
Oh my goodness, what the heck is that? I have seen old radios and cassette players but never one that included a TV in its setup. How neat is that? This gem comes from the '70s, alright.
Being a writer, I've always wanted to own an old typewriter. So I was pretty thrilled when I saw that somebody found this gem from around 1914. It's a beauty, isn't it? I love that kind of stuff.
"We found war ration books from 1944 inside an old purse in the basement."
Whoa! Can you imagine that? I can. In fact, where I lived in Poland, we did get all kinds of stamps for food and stuff during the communist years. Oh, yeah!
"A 32-year-old, still sealed bottle of German beer found under my grandparent's sink while cleaning their house out (we're American)."
Something tells me that you shouldn't drink that or if you do, do it at your own risk, ha, ha!
"This was my great grandma's perfume. We suspect it was her mother’s. Says 'Kismet'. Can anyone confirm how old this is?
So apparently, these perfume bottles were popular in the '50s and '60s. Hmm, I wonder what it smells like? Ha, ha!
Check this out: This person stumbled upon old film reels while cleaning up the basement of an old house built in 1903. Do you think there's any chance of being able to see what's on them? I have no idea.
At first, I was like, "What do we have here?" and then I realized this was a Coca-Cola screwdriver set. Who knew something like this even existed, eh? I definitely didn't. What a cool find, right?
Being a romantic like me, here's something I wish I have found. This person stumbled upon old love letters bound by a string hidden in an old ventilation cavity in a wall. How amazing is that?
How many phones did you own before your current one? I think I've had about five. But I've never seen one that comes with an optional clip-on chat board for "easy" texting. How about you, huh?
A lot of these items I have never seen before, and that's pretty rare, if I say so myself. Have you ever found anything cool from the past hidden somewhere for a long time? If yes, I'd love to know what was.
