Objects of yore

Over the last few days, we had been cleaning up a room in our administrative area. The search was for some old files which we needed to put in order. 

In addition to the said papers, we also good some interesting objects. 

I thought that there could be people who will be interested to see these . . . 

Evidence that work on agriculture had been attempted earlier.
Our carpenter, Sukhi with the model of a plough which he claims to have made many years back for one of the officers. He told that he still wonders why he made such a small plough . . . 
Quite a help in the olden days . . . before the 'use and throw' era
A quite expensive tool kit for diesel engines. Dinesh was quite thrilled to get this . . .
Post cards . .. ... Communicating before blogs and e-mails
Quite a antique looking time piece . . . 
There used to be inter-unit badminton championships . . .
NJH had many runner up trophies.
I could not spot a winner medal
A Remington typewriter . . .

  1. Jeevan - I think the plough could have been made for an educational display box. I think that there was a kind of glass display unit on the outside of the 'meeting hall' (we called it the multipurpose hall when I was at NJH) at one point - the idea being to have it as an educational tool for people who were walking by on the way to the opd.
