What is something you used to own (now lost, stolen, sold, discarded, given away, etc.) that you wish you still had?

I lost a picture album while moving in the 70's that had some great pictures taken in the jungles of Vietnam.

I used to have the original Barbie Doll. My Mom gave it away when I was at college. Now it's valuable. Somehow she missed the original Ken, with felt blond hair. I still have him. Wouldn't you know it though. He isn't worth much!

Around the age of 10 or 11, I traded a shoebox full of baseball cards for a pile of toy soldiers. I still have visions of that shoebox, and how many valuable cards there might have been in there (Mickey Mantle's rookie card maybe?).

I was doing the morning show on KCKN in Kansas City in 1978. An American Indian inmate of the Leavenworth Federal penitentiary apparently listened to my show every day. He sent me an authentic Indian beaded necklace made out of thousands of tiny beads with my name and the call letters of the station in the pattern. He made it himself bead by bead. When we moved from Kansas City to Albany, NY, it was lost in the move.
It was a lot like this one, but with my name and KCKN embedded in the handmade pattern. ![]() |

I sold my 1974 Triumph TR6 in impeccable condition to my brother, who trashed it. Sure loved that little white convertible with the black rag top. Wish I could drive it now . . .

We've also sold off numerous muscle cars, etc. over the years. Sure wish I had some of them back! But they were all sold for good reason - made perfect sense at the time, anyways!! Such is life..... ![]() Bill |

Wish I had kept my beautiful white Buick Riviera; loved that car for ten years and gave it to my stepdaughter who in turn drove it a few years and sold it for a new car.
Wish I had kept it especially when when I learned that they stopped making that model the year I gave mine away. Now obviously a collectors' item. Oh well, at this stage in my life, the golf cart is just fine. ![]()

My brother and I shared a room growing up. When I went away to college, her threw out all my yearbooks, photos, and other keepsakes because he wanted more room. Since my family moved a lot, these were the only things I could look at to remember old friends and places.
