Daddy's bowl-backed mandolin (Luigi Uriani, Napoli). Every once in while he'd whip it out and play 1920s novelty pop tunes like "Ain't she sweet" and "Washington at Valley Forge." When Kweskin came out in the 60s I was like "Yeah, OK, why're people excited about that? That's just like Daddy." Thanks Dad.
