People Are Sharing The Cool Vintage Things They’ve Found (22 Pics)

The last time I moved, I went through boxes of stuff I had to get rid of. None of it had any value to me anymore but every once in a while you come across something cool and vintage.

The people who lost these items had no idea they’d turn out to be vintage one day. It’s crazy to think about what will be considered “vintage” in 30 years.
