Do You Actually Use Any Of Your Vintage Stuff?

[Wee67]

I was filling up one of my 70's McDonalds glasses with diet Dr. Pepper when I started to, once again, admire the graphics on it. I'm not sure why, but I still get a little joy each time I use them. I also have a King Kong glass from the '76 movie that I enjoy. That is when I'm not filling up one of my 7-11 Slurpee cups with a cold beverage. I also keep a Batman-shaped transister radio in the bathroom I use in the shower (gotta listen to the news before work )

What vintage stuff do you guys actually use rather than simply display?

I still have a Batman glass I use once in a blue moon.

I like to collect and wear a lot of vintage shirts (minus any with large collars), jackets and coats from the 1940s up to the 1970s. Some WWII U.S. coats & jackets, a vintage 60s Levi's denim jacket, a lot of work shirts, chambray shirts and western shirts. Anyhow, I wear all of it. I just make sure I take good care of them and always have them dry cleaned. They never see the washing machine.

I use several carton and hero glasses. I also have a few extra Mead Marvel folders and note pads that I use instead of legal pads. Serveral vintage boards games are put to good use on snowy or rainy days.

Define 'vintage'.
I work next to a guy who's half my age and 'old' stuff to him is the 80's...when he was BORN!

So by that definition I use my 'vintage' underwear quite often.

I have a 70's DC Flash glass that I use very often. I got it at a yard sale and the red is faded, so I don't mind using it. I also have an 80's Hulk glass I use sometimes.

[Brue]

I usually wear my ~1978 Superman winter hat. I have some megos specifically for playing with. My daughters abuse my 3 3/4 batman and batmobile. I have a 1978 Star Wars pillow case I use (my wife was going to send it to good will just last week!!!)I will ocassionally use other vintage stuff but those are the everyday items that come to mind.

Yes. I have a Planet of the Apes mug from Hardy Girl that I use on occasion...(thanks HardyGirl!!!). It's a bit wee small for my hands, but it's fun to use.

I use a few of the moon series Pepsi glasses and 2 I got at the WB store regularly. I also got some Super Jrs. fabric off ebay (I think it use to be curtains). There was enough for my wife to make me a pillow case that I've been known to use, usually with my travel pillow.

My wife is from the early 70s and I do stuff with her all the time.

We still use a lot of our old board games like "Which, Witch?" and "Battlestar Galactica." I also bring out my Rock 'em Sock 'em robots for the kids, too. I also have a few type 2 Megos that the kids can play with, too. Also, some SSP cars.
