So, out of blind curiosity, I have decided to ask this. What's the oldest yadda yadda it's all in the title.

By those unsure about this, like say, reading a copy of William Shakespeare's Rome and Juliet wouldn't count unless it was the original copy, with all the crinkly old paper and fancy words.

Myself, I have read a 1969 ( I think, maybe 1970) edition of the Beano Book.

Does admiring paintings do? I've seen lots of Van Gogh, Van Der Meer and Ruben if it does. There's a museum about 10 minutes away from me with their works.

I have a book from the 30's or 40's somewhere in my closet.
That's it, really.

Sure, that'll work. So long as it's fulfilled its purpose on you, that works.

I had an original print of A Clockwork Orange and was reading it until I saw that pages were missing. Damn! Oh well, the oldest original anything I own now is probably one of my VHS's, although I have no idea which one.

Music wise, I have a longplayer Sinatra record from 1958 which I still often listen too.
I also own a series of three books (Robinson Crusoe, Last of the Mohicans and something else) from the 1890's.
