"Inheritance"
When I was over clearing out my stuff from Mum and Dad's house ahead of its sale, I found my 1980s Transformer in the "Jenni" box. I'd thought about it occasionally but assumed it was lost/thrown out at some point, they gave it to me when I was in the hospital getting my tonsils out when I was 4 (I'm 43 tomorrow!).
I handed it on to the young 'un immediately and it's back in play circulation now but it got me thinking about deemed heirlooms, how as parents during a stage "rid-oot" something gets lauded up as a must-keep, something that might be unearthed with a story later on.
I'd like to do some more work along that idea but for now, there's a few of these available with different backgrounds/plain in the rack. Unfortunately you can't have this one as it's my own artist print and was the only one in existence when I HAD to get them all to the framers.
