People in The UK and Europe have a lot more choices...

My house only dates to the 60s. (though I once lived in one built in 1893) I can see my grandmother's hutch cabinet, which was old when I first saw it in the 1950s, and the album of old postcards she saved starting about 1902....and if I walk into the bedroom, I can the shoes my father wore as a baby in 1907-08...and downstairs are my grandfathers pocket watch from the 1890s and medals he got for sharpshooting in some quasi-military unit in 1889 or so.

Since I am near Wash DC, I 'could' drive a ways and see old houses & monuments back to the 1790s, etc...but as I sit at the computer, my grandmother's album is it.
