Some fishing gear from the late 60’s - early 70’s.

Mountain Hardware Room with a View, it's seen some beautiful places for sure.

Probably this money from a Westpac cruise around 1977. Phillipines, Thailand, Hong Kong

I have my Remington Sportsman pump 12GA that I bought with my own money when I was 15 (55 this year) at Bi-Mart in Klamath Falls Oregon. Still looks great and shoots great!

Two old cabinet radio players about small bookcase in size. Have been moving them with me for yearssssss. Had planned on changing out the old tubes for modern components, just haven't followed thru.

Still have and use occasionally my technic turntable I bought in 1977. I still have close to 100 albums. None bought after 1985. Only thing I've ever done to the turntable was a new belt.

Me and my brother still have a Sears and roebuck single shot bolt action 22. My dad ordered those from the catalog and gave em to us for working in the garden one summer. I was 10 yrs old.

I have a hunting knife and Ruger 10/22 from the early ‘70s that I purchased at Gibsons with money from mowing lawns. I do have my dad’s pre 64 model 94 and his hunting knife that I cut my hand on in the ‘60s. That thing is still razor sharp

I didn't pay for it but I still have my shoeshine box from pledging in 2000, I can't think of anything older that I paid for myself. The oldest thing I have is my grandpa's .22 which he got from his older sister on her wedding day as a way of saying thanks for helping her carry her cotton sack when they were little and picked cotton.

This could be two questions. Not sure which one you intended. I will take on both.

Something you bought NEW with your own money that is now old and you still have? *I have a few roostertails I bought new as a kid in the late 80s.

And something you bought with your own money that was already old, or not new? I have a rifle from 1895 I bought for $200 when I was 18. It shoots... if you can find ammo for it. Also a couple of Bowman baseball cards from the early 50s. No big names, but they are still cool.

A Mossberg 410 bolt action that I paid for when I was 12, saved up paper route and mowing money

A collection of arrowheads that are probably a few thousand years old.

i have a penny / nickel / dime coin collection that goes back to the early 1900's; and no Wool E., i ant takin' a pikshur of it

I have a Craftsman Air Compressor that I purchased in 1972. I did replace the tank with a larger one that is a vertical instead of the original horizontal one.
