Fascinating. Obviously someone has been cleaning and sorting. I had to laugh at some of his assumptions about old time stuff, like thinking that tin tank on the top of a clothes iron meant it was “gas powered.” Most likely that was a water tank for an early model steam iron.
Yeah, and he didn’t at first recognize those old telephones.

I noticed that too. Everything is dusted and neatly arranged. The place looks unused but not exactly abandoned. The paper items are in good condition with no signs of mildew...makes me wonder if it’s been climate controlled, like with an A/C unit or other way of dehumidifying. Or maybe it’s just naturally dry up there. Very cool place; I love old buildings that retain signs of everyday life and “the way it was.”
