CHILD MINDER

Put your child in, grab your absynth, and forget about it. Seriously, this was the babysitter back in the day.

HAND STAMPED WALL PAPER

If you have ever hung wallpaper (or tried to take it down) you'll know why it is rarely used. Imagine having to design it piece by piece.

SPITTOON

Yes, they were a thing. Using one was a sign of good manners and hygeine. Maybe they'll make a comeback.

WITCH BOTTLE

Used to keep witches and evil spirits away, finger nails, urine and hair were collected from home occupants, mixed in this then placed upside down beneath the fireplace. This actually sounds like something a witch would do.

JEANNETTE GLASS

Depression era glassware that was made in Jeannette, Pennsylvania. Often times it was given away for free at gas stations etc.

BREECHES BUOY

Shipwrecked? This is how they would save you. Just jump in this baby and you were saved.

OPIUM PIPE

Now extremely rare, they were sometimes referred to as dream sticks.

SCRIMSHAW SPERM WHALE TOOTH

In between sightings, the men on whaling ships would make art out of the whale teeth.
