If you still have any of your childhood toys, how old is your oldest one?
Much older than me, e.g. a parent's childhood toy that they passed on to me
Slightly/technically older than me, e.g. a baby shower gift
1 year or less younger than me (I've had it since my first birthday or before)
1–3 years younger than me (I've had it since age 3 or younger)
3–5 years younger than me (I've had it since age 5 or younger)
5–8 years younger than me (I've had it since age 8 or younger)
8–11 years younger than me (I've had it since age 11 or younger)
Something I got at age 12 or older, but I would still consider this my childhood
I don't still have any toys from my childhood
If it matters for your answer, measure "age" by how long it's been in your/your family's possession, not manufacture date. Make your best guess if you're not sure how long you've had it.

Spotted: Miss Ryu ringing in another year of glamour at her birthday bash, but the best gift didn't arrive until fashionably late. Golden Boy finally showed up at her party looking a little flushed (liquid courage, perhaps?), only to drag her into a private room with a small wrapped box. Didn't think he'd make it, R? You should know by now that it isn't a real party until somebody crashes it. Some may say this was orchestrated by yours truly. Consider this a birthday present for keeping the Upper East Side from dying of boredom. xoxo, GOSSIP GIRL.
Wood Engraving Wednesday
From 1953-1983, renowned American wood engraver John De Pol (1913-2004) produced illustrations for a series of thirty, privately-printed keepsakes on Benjamin Franklin (of which we hold thirteen). The images shown here are selections from the keepsakes, privately printed in a commemorative publication entitled Thirty, and published in connection with the celebration of Printing Week in New York in 1987.
Our copy is a gift from our late friend Jerry Buff (1931-2025) and bears John De Pol's signed presentation to him.
