Do you have any objects from your childhood?

I have a leather pouch that held a Pfleuger fishing reel. I kept coins that I was collecting in it. It was given to me in 1958. I still have it and it still has coins in it.

    I still have my pound puppy. My sister had both of ours for a long time and she gave me mine I think last year sometime or maybe two years ago. I’m losing track of time. Also lots of pictures, all my report cards and stuff like that.

    I have one, also. I was about 32 when I got it. I also have a small collection of beanie critters.

    My original Barbie...black hair/pony tail/curly bangs/striped bathing suit.

    This is the #850 original Barbie that was born in 1959.  I got mine in 1961.

    Not even an old box of tildes? Or a GI Joe?

    I didn’t get into tildes until AnswerBag about a decade ago, it wasn’t on my radar in my childhood.

    Not exactly funny one. A photograph of the awesomeness that was me as a toddler.

    Yes, and from my mom's as well. At 17 in 1949, she was one of 40 finalists in the Westinghouse Science Talent Search. I have a photo of her and the other finalists posed around President Truman in the Oval Office.

    Pictures, and one yellowed newspaper clipping reporting when I won a prize in the Australian Mathematics Competition when I was 12. A few books, which I read when I was a kid, and read to my kids, and now read to my grandkids.
