My Dad built a small yard tractor back in 1961. I finished restoring it about 3 years ago and still use it often to plow or harrow. Also have a snow plow. But on said tractor is a 1928 Chevrolet 3 speed transmission. I also have a pocket watch from my Grandfather, serial number search shows it having been manufactured in 1915.
The family Bible. Printed in 1748 when the family was living in Alsace-Lorraine. We still put notations of births, deaths and marriages in it, although we've had to add some pages.
My grandmothers jewelry that has been passed down in the family for generations. The first daughter of every generation wears the pieces on special occasions. Antique but not sure when the jewelry was made. Beautiful old diamond watch and pin.
A yellow and green enamel bowl and 2 silver tablespoons that belonged to my great great grandmother. They are approx 160 years old. They all are used daily and we have taken great care of them like to not use metal utensils in the bowl to scrape it.
