1. “I tried on my mom’s wedding dress from 1985.”

2. “Today we inherited my boyfriend’s grandfather’s vinyl collection.”

5. “Inherited this from my grandma when she passed.”

“Found it in the attic of our family farm in Denmark. The trumpet belonged to my great-grandfather and I would love to restore it and learn how to play it.”

10. “Yes, I’m wearing my dad’s shirt to school.”

11. “A 500 Home Run Club ball signed by 11 members that I inherited a couple of years ago”

18. “I inherited my late grandad’s negatives. This is my nan at around 18 or 19. I’m guessing it was taken in 1955. Kodak safety film, camera to be determined!”

19. “The memories attached to this are great, but I have no idea how to use it.”
