47 Rare and Interesting Things People Found Hidden in Their Houses

One day, someone found this fascinating piece of history while digging around in their grandfather’s attic. It’s a medical chest from Japan. It’s even more interesting because it still has all the old medicines and tinctures inside. Our storyteller thinks this chest might be from Japan’s Shōwa era, which was from December 1926 to January 1989.

Obviously, there is quite a bit of time between 1926 and 1989! We can tell that this medicine chest is from the earlier years of the Shōwa era. It might even be as old as 1926! It’s pretty miraculous that this person’s grandfather stored this piece of history in his attic for decades and never cleaned it out. You never know what you might find in the attic!
