Looking for something to meet the challenge I came across these old CD's which I had forgotten that I ever created. Helen, good one! These are indeed old technology. We don't see them around these days. |

Not sure why I still have these. I have nothing to play them on. I was going to buy a combo vcr/dvd recorder so I could transfer the tapes to DVD's - but the machine was too expensive Janice, these are a blast from the past. Great examples of old technology! |

My entry is a Princess style telephone. When we bought it was cutting edge because, well, touch-tone. Shot in BW using a Tri-X Push Process film recipe in my Fuji X100V. Thanks for the theme Sepiana. Bill, this old technology was screaming for a B&W conversion. Great job! We bought one as well. It has been moved to the wall in the garage and it still works. |

Frank, great capture of this old technology! Beautiful tonal range (with a grunge look). |

Who can remember having a Psion Organiser? Dennis Dennis, I can remember it. Great finding for this week's theme. I wonder if it still works. |

Was never that organized but I do have a Psion Series 3 ca 1991 PDA . Not sure if it still works - I'll have to try ... Tony, it would be interesting to find out if it still works. It seems to be in good shape (despite its age). |

Kodak Retinette IA. Apparently, manufactured from 1959 to 1961. This belonged to my gran in England. Probably still works unless the lubricants have seized. No plans to test it.  Film is old technology I do not want to revisit. Clive, what a beauty! And it fits this week's theme to a T. |

This is an Atmos clock my dad bought in 1966. There's no place for batteries and it never need winding. Daily fluctuations in temperature and barometric pressure keep it running. Pete, beautiful clock! Old yet looking pretty good. Good thing you kept it. |

My old 2005 PDA; Palm TX and a few other non-electronic oldies. Jim, great finding -- examples of non-electronic old technology. These are museum pieces. |

Who remembers the ritual of the old Mercury Thermometer? Shake vigorously to move the mercury near the bulb, position under the tongue or under the arm and leave for two minutes, squint at the reading, then clean and store carefully. So much easier now that we just point a gun at the forehead or place a nozzle in the ear for two seconds.... Brenda Brenda, you never cease to surprise me. Where did you find this jewel? Definitely old technology! (And I remember it.) |

And from the pre-digital technology era - ca 1920 I believe: Tony, definitely old technology! We rarely see them these days (outside museums and antique stores). Perfect for this theme! |

Elgin Pocket watch ~ 1925 was my great grandfather's My great grandfather's straight razor Pete, you have quite a collection of old-technology items. I envision a collage, enlarged, framed, and on the wall. |
