Here are a few photos I have gathered together for this challenge. Some of them I had to try to work out the ages but I think I am mostly correct with them. Here they are.
C and K Ellis 1888Many of the headstones are over 100 years oldOatlands Mill 1837Very Old Playing Cards. these would have to QualifySemaphore Water Tower 1880. This is in South Australia.This is my old piano. I am told it dates back before 1910.One of my beloved Teddy Bears. He is from around 1910This Underwood Typewriter is from around 1911A very old coach and trunks from years ago.
I came to Australia with my mother and sister Vanda in 1966 from the UK aboard the Sitmar liner Castel Felice. We settled in South Australia I lived in the western suburbs of Adelaide for most of my life. I became very interested in retro items in my twenties. It was always a dream of mine to have an old house and fill it with retro items. I have done it twice now. My main interest is collecting old things. They do not have to be valuable, only interesting. There is something reassuring about old retro items. I have all sorts of things including doll related items. My other interests are my beautiful pets, art and going for drives to who knows where. I also enjoy board games or doing a scenic jig saw puzzle on a wintry afternoon by the fire. My goal is to travel a bit more as there are some places I would love to see
