I have some Wizard of OZ books from 1903. They were my Mom's books when she was a child that she passed to us as kids. Out of 7 siblings, I think I am the only one that still has some.

One that comes immediately to mind as it was used recently - Colt Oklahoma Diamond Jubilee Frontier Scout .22LR single action revolver dated 1965 that a friend gave to me for my son. We shot it recently at the range.

Does it have a compass in the stock?

My Hobart i believe is a 1974. Use it all the time.

I use a Kodak Brownie about twice a year. I looked up the production code once, I think it was 1953. It takes great pictures.

Yes. It holds a shelf up in the storage room room.

So I guess it changed from automotive to household tool?

The question didn't require the items be used as intended.

I have a t-shirt that has over 20 years of use and is still in the rotation, getting a little thin now though. The clock radio in my bedroom was purchased by me in 1987 and still wakes me up in morning.
We have a 1997 honda foreman 400 atv that we bought new. 22 years of plowing, hauling, riding with nothing but a couple of wheel bearing, 2 drive shaft couplings and a rectifier pack.
Also have a 1997 yamaha enticer II snowmobile with nearly 12 000km of hauling, riding and abuse. She has hauled almost 3x her original value in firewood and is still going with all orginal engine and drivetrain. Pretty good for a 2-stroke.

"use" is a strong word, since it stays safely wrapped... But I sometimes use the blanket my great great great grandfather was issued in the American Civil War as a reminder that you've gotta keep going... Also have the carbine he was issued.

Otherwise probably my violin.
