The post 46 Curious Finds Buried Deep Within Historic Houses appeared first on Barnorama.

“My late grandma still had her TV operating guide from 1962.”

“Spotted some cool old-school stickers in my grandparent’s basement.”
“Once I saw those stickers, I could taste the gum that used to come in those packs.”

“Found a 30+-year-old bottle of Vodka from the USSR in grandparents’ house.”
“If there are any teens around, it is likely only water now.”

“My grandma saved her bill from a surgery and 6-day hospital stay in 1956.”
“I had surgery in November and stayed in the hospital one night and was billed 90k dollars (before insurance).”

“My grandpa’s blood alcohol calculator.”
“They used to hand these out at my high school, lol.”

“My grandma still uses her mixer from the ’70s.”

“Grandma called it the ‘powder room’ for a reason.”

“A VHS tape I found at my grandma’s house.”

“This old Crayola box my grandma has.”

“My grandpa has manual fire extinguishers in his house.”
“Those are quite unique indeed. Interestingly, some of these fire grenades contained salt water while others contained carbon tetrachloride, which at high temperatures produces a gas called phosgene. So yeah, not really good to throw into a hot fire.
Very cool to see!!”

“My grandma has a Rugrats bandaid from 1997 in her medicine cabinet.”
“I would so purposely fall down the stairs just to put that bandaid on.”

“Grandpa would have been shocked to know that, 60 years later, random people would be reading this message. And, most of them would be reading it on the toilet.”

“This old Pringles can my grandma uses to hold her paint brushes.”
“Looks like these cans are sold on auction sites and listed as from the late 1970s/early1980s.”

“I found an old dollar in my grandma’s stuff.”
“In terms of inflation, a 1917 dollar is currently worth about $23.
If you had bought a dollar of gold in 1917 instead of this dollar, it’d be worth $83.
As a collector’s item sold on eBay, this is worth $80-$250.
If you take it to a mint, treasury office, or bank, they’ll give you $1.”

“My Grandma kept and framed her Valentine’s cards she got in second grade, around 1924.”

“Late grandpa had kept a 1998 box of Kraft Dinner, still sealed.”
“So who was on the hockey player card? I’m guessing Peter Forsberg”
