1. I have an iron statue of Shakespeare from my grandfather which he picked up during WWII in Italy. It was made in the mid 1700s.
2. I have a picture of myself at maybe age 2 with a mall Santa Claus in a music box shaped like a teddy bear. I generally bring it out for Christmas. I've had it for almost exactly 23 years. My actual teddy bear, Radar (named after the character on MASH), was given to me by a close family friend the day I came home from the hospital after being born. I don't know if it counts, though, as it's simply in a plastic bag in the basement.
