20+ Internet Users Show Their Vintage Things That’ve Been Used for Ages, and It’s a Miracle They Still Work
Let’s go back in time and experience the moments our great-grandparents lived through. Vintage items can help us put ourselves in their shoes and they also keep the memories alive of the many hands that touched them. There are people who still use vintage items and prove that they work as perfectly as the day they were bought.
We at Bright Side had a good time searching for these items and experiences from people and now we are sharing them with you.
1. A working hole punch that is 100+ years old

This was my grandpa's, now my dad has it :)

Is it a vinyl player? It looks too small :/
It's for smaller vinyls :)
WOW! Didn't know there were two sizes of vinyl!!
Aw!!! My father had the same one but for bigger vinyls :)
And here's mine :D
It doesn't work but... I still love it!

I had one of those in yellow color when I was a teenager!
I would love to find one of those. I have some old cassettes of my mom's :)
The Mickey Mouse pocket watch is so cute. My oldest sister used to have one of those, but hers didn't work ?
Wow the ones that are older than 100 years... I mean, that's a lot of days ?
I know! That's more than 36k days haha.
They're proof old things have a better quality than the one from nowadays
