Do you have stuff from your childhood?

I guess the thing I've owned the longest is a pair of hemostats, you know, fancified, medical equivalent to a roach clip. Had it (them?) about twenty-five years. I'm 41 this month. Also have a shoebox of old Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars. One is worth about $50, but for $50 I'll keep it.

Recently returned to Pop by his mother, however, is this set of hand carved toy guns/gun rack/and axe. They were carved by his great-grandfather. The axe is one piece, as is the gun rack. Circa about 1940.

At the bottom is a 6-inch scale for, well, scale. Apologies for the smudges and grime.
