What is the oldest thing you possess?

I have a Doll Collection that has been handed down. The oldest is from 1950. I've added several dolls since the collection has been mine.

Although..... Now that I think of it.... I have some pictures of relatives that are on tin or metal. Not sure when they were taken.... but they are old. Not the relatives (they're deceased) .... the pictures.

I have an mp3 of a recording of Scott Joplin performing the Maple Leaf Rag back in 1907. I recorded the mp3 direct from a vinyl copy I had of this. The vinyl copy itself was rare, and the actual recording was made by placing an original piano roll that Joplin recorded in 1907 into a modern piano, miking it up and letting it play.

It's just beautiful.

Other than that, not much old stuff really other than more old recordings.
 
What is the oldest thing you keep or part of any collection?

I have this 19th Century Queensland stamp

The oldest thing I have with me till this day would have to be my Baby I.D. Bracelet from when I was born. For some reason it just makes me feel complete in life these days and remember a time when I was new to the world. That is just me of course.
