Background:
My uncle was a major league packrat/hoarder. He kept everything. Well, after a long battle with cancer he went home in 2010. It is taking forever to clean stuff up and sift through everything he "collected". Over Memorial Day weekend whilst cleaning out one of his sheds I found these.
Before some gentle cleaning
After some gentle cleaning
I showed my dad and he remembered whose and what they were. The cup and razor belonged to my great-grandfather. The little butter knife belonged to him also.
Closer Pics
Wiped down, but patina and rust left for now.
Pretty neat to find this stuff. It will go great in a display with some other stuff. We also found a vintage Benelli motorcycle gastank in that shed.
