When I helped my GF’s Father redo their kitchen we found and old news paper under the sink counter from the late 20’s early 30s and their were cars in there for 800 bucks and fridges for like 100-200, shoes were like 5 bucks, it was interesting to see. ---

when i helped my parents redo their house we put a newspaper in the wall from back when the san fran earthquake hit… we found on there from when JFK was shot. i’d be interested in a bottle or crackers from then… at least to see what they look like. what building was this in? ---

history is cool. I’ve read about the crackers thing before. they had crackers in storage incase of an emergency from like the 40’s. they took out a bunch and did a taste test with people on the street and everyone said they were good. ---

history is fun, we were remodeling our house and ripped down a wall and still there plain as day was the engravings of the people who built the house around 1920, and there was a newpaper in plastic, beer cans lol, and a couple 2 dollar bills inside the newspaper, it was pretty cool ---

First of all … stop eating the crackers. Second of all… get that stuff on e-bay. People pay big money for that type of thing. The fact that the Pepsi Bottles are still full… Makes them worth a fortune. The more “authentic and undisturbed” the item the more it is worth. ---

i have a history degree as well as a lit degree… so i guess i like history… as for crackers, i didn’t think sealed crackers could go bad. Pepsi— probably flat, but those bottles are worth more w/ the shit in it still.
