What's the oldest thing that you own?

[Explosive Newt]

Mostly books
- first edition first printing Summer Lightning (Wodehouse)
- Diseases of the Heart (1948)
- bible owned by my great grandfather, dated 1907
And loads of guff I seem to pick up at book fairs / steal from hotels

My grandfather’s cuff links (1950s)

[KiwiDave]

20" Rogers B8 bronze crash ride cymbal - should sound like balls but sounds like angels. Circa 1940 (I think)

I'm still using the same pair of Mission 731 speakers that I bought in 1996. Hooked up to a Sonos ZP100 these days though.

There must be a few folk that have had speakers for ages. I had a set of Tannoy Mercury MX3s I'd had for years until I moved through here. I gave them away because I never used them and they needed repaired. I couldn't be bothered doing it.

I can't match that on the speakers front but I have had the Michell turntable I own for 15 years now. I don't ever intend on selling it as it can be upgraded with better arms and cartridges to a silly level before it would be the deck that let's the side down.

[Jobbo]

I've still got a pair of Kef Q15.2s which I bought in 2000, but that's not much older than my first Squeezebox. I do have a Sony tape deck and Minidisc deck which are both from the 90s, though. And of course Lego going back to 1979; though I still have a few car mags which are older than that too.
