Miss Moose quote of the day on 10/26/2023 "Oh my gosh, we have Atari ! 😁... Was that really a dead animal or just a hide? .....Attic fun with Paper and Moose! Watch out! Renee has the cooties!🤣
I had to take a good look at that animal to make sure it didn't end its' final days up there. But, no bones, so we were good! Cooties was such a great game when I was little. That one and "Don't Break the Ice" were classics!
Those attics always seem so daunting. How you maintain your excitement and enthusiasm are an inspiration. I think I'd reach the top of those rickety stairs and say, "Nope."
The first part of doing the digging & seeing what there is is always the fun part. Then when you’re carrying all those fun things down that ladder, you realize it’s work 🙂
Awesome intro, and great to see you and Tony working together again. Seems that this household got some kiddies who grew up in the 80s/90s. I like the Matchbox Super Garage set in it´s original package, highly collectible. Don´t mind your lighting, for a place like that it was perfect. 👌Keep it up, Renée, and don´t hesitate to give us further impressions of this cleanout job (if the owner of this property allows it) 😉. Some 1942 Winter vacation photos from and around Munich arrived today and will be added to my next package to Bloomsbury. 🌨Greets from GER, U.
Those photos sound wonderful! Thank you! And correct, kids that grew up in the 70s/80s.... wish they would have put more of their toys or clothes up in the attic! Tony might be getting another cleanout in a few weeks, so I'll be able to record more then. For the rest of the attic, there's one little part to go through but then I'll be up & down that ladder carrying things down. Luckily we can utilize one of the windows to throw stuff out for the dumpster. I better finish that attic before we get our cold spell - next week only in the upper 40s! Eek!
These clean outs are inspiring me. I am going threw (through?) boxes in the basements and lots are being donated. Unfortunately, some things I forgot about and now they are out of the basement and on the main floor being used!
The magic word ‘Tony’ hooked me right away. I love you two together. ‘Endless possibilities’ up in there; some vintage copper plate- sadly not ‘The Declaration’ but worth a moment's meditation. ‘Donkey Kong’? - from the sublime to the not ridiculous ‘Pinball box ‘packed with real vintage gaming goodies. Happy Days!! Heyyyyy! ☺️
The tires on those first couple toy cars looked like Stompers battery powered toys. If so, they can be worth a ton of money. They can easily be mistaken for random common cheap toys but even pieces are worth a good amount.
Hi renee this is the first video that had my time frame in the attic it just reminded me of the good ole days love seeing your excitement, we both can enjoy but for different reason thanks
Those old games were cool to find...... especially Happy Days! Love those Planet of the Apes & GI Joes ....brings back childhood memories, great vid as always! Happy Hunting!
My family loved to prank each other and when I was growing up. My mom HATED tinsel icicles. When I came home for the weekend during college, I bought 4 boxes of the stuff and plastered the Christmas tree while she was at work!!! We all laughed our heads off when we saw her reaction!! Great memories😂😂🥰🥰🥰
Renee, you have the cutest little laugh I think that I’ve ever heard! Get that handsome boyfriend of yours to laugh a little more too. He’s all together just too serious for a boy his age! You make such a darling couple. Take it from this old lady…. before you realize it your life will be coming towards the end and, like me, you’ll have no idea where all of the years that our good Lord graciously gave you have gone. You’ll start to look at different Christmas ornaments and you’ll try to remember where you got them from. Some are so beautiful, handmade and from all over the world but for all the tea in China you won’t be able to recall where they came from. Then from somewhere in the back of your mind you’ll hear the words, “It’s okay, it doesn’t matter anyway!” And it really doesn’t! Honey try not to let Taco waste much more time being so damn shy! It’s plain to see that he loves you he’s just a little bit scared. It’s a big step for him. I think you’re going to have to put on a slinky little nightgown and robe. Make him a nice dinner, nothing too fancy. A casserole of some kind would be nice. Keep the lights down low and after dinner fill up your wine glasses one more time and make your move!! Neither one of you are getting any younger! Now get going on this foolproof plan before you two die of old age. What a beautiful bride you’ll be! The two of you together will look like Barbie and Ken!❤🥰✝️God bless you!!
The very first system I remember playing was Atari. I had to be sneaky since i wasn't really allowed to. It was hooked up to the tv with dials in my room late 80s. The tv at one point lost color so we watched shows in black and white.
Hey Renee. So glad Tony is with you again at another clean out. I see you found some good treasures. But did you find the other half of Yogi Bear 🐻. I hope you put it aside for yourself. Thank you for a lovely video. God Bless you Renee. Take care and be careful out there. Love you. Mari'a. 🎃🎃🎃🎃🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛👻👻👻👻🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍🐻🐻🐻🐻
Apparently at one estate sale, I was looking in a cabinet that was out on the front porch and there was a little bat in the corner! I didn't even notice it until a viewer pointed it out when watching my video. Wish I would have seen the little guy so I could have taken a look at him.
@@PaperandMoose When I was a kid, one of my friends lived in an old farmhouse. Their next-door neighbor had a bat colony that lived in the barn - we would wait until dusk to see the bats flying out in a cloud. There are bats there to this day. Also, Austin,TX has one of the largest urban bat colonies in the country. 🦇🦇🦇
Hello Renee. The attic is interesting . There’s got to be gold in the somewhere. It’s a shame you can’t video anywhere else in. But I’m sure you’ll let us know how it’s going. And if you find some amazing stuff like the most amazing 80s toy ever. Take care and have a wonderful weekend. 🕵🏼♀️🕵🏼♀️🕵🏼♀️🕵🏼♀️🕵🏼♀️🕵🏼♀️☕️🫖☕️🫖☕️🫖🥰🥰🥰💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Tony packed up the kitchen items and bagged up the clothes in the bedrooms upstairs. There isn't much more to film in the attic besides me walking up & down that ladder! Haha. I'll be getting my exercise for sure at this house! Hope that your week has gone well so far!
I had an Atari 2600 when I was like 11 years old and I remember that connector that attached to the TV with two screws and allowed you to switch between the cable TV and the Atari.
The Atari console in the attic looks like it could be a 'heavy 6' or a 'light 6' (because it has 6 switches on the front). The heavy 6 I believe is quite desirable in the collector's world. Only the early Ataris have the Difficulty A/B switch on the front. Later Atari consoles only have 4 switches on the front and then some much smaller switches just behind them for the difficulty switches for left player and right player. Looks like you have some well-loved stuff in that attic!
Very interesting! That gijoe was very old 50's ! I hope you get to film in the garage if not at least pick some some stuff then film what you picked at your home!
Where's chucky hiding😂, I still have my six million dollar man action figure since I was a kid, also have a few pocket games still around I have held onto a lot of toys since childhood also have the Fisher price airport and plane. Happy hunting hunting 😊
@@PaperandMoose oh yes sonic. This is my kids sega and games. They had cool spot,sonic and others. They had Lyme disease when they were little si the sega kept them relaxed. Best money ever spent. ❤️
Sorry for the repeat if someone else said it, but if the globe was good to put back together, with the stand it fits in to twirl, they can sell for over $20. To ship, might help to not have them assembled though? I love doing what you are doing in this video, wish I could have helped.
How ya Renée maybe the dead animal was the hamster 🐹 from the hamster wheel 🤭 & was that an aircraft carrier with the number 62 on it ❓ Great Video really enjoyed that one 👍®️
Have you seen where they take old Christmas light bulbs and make Christmas wreaths out of them. Or stick them on the tops of flower frogs and salt and pepper shakers .
I'm not sure of this, but I think there was a pop song entitled "Toys in the Attic"? I'll have to research that one! Wow, it's again, amazing what homeowners toss and forget in basements or attics...all my explorations were in basements! Looks like I'd have to have you along, as to 80's toys, do not relate to them at all. My interest goes back to the 1920s-1960. My toy era was my childhood... during the late 40s-mid 50s. "Cootie"...I remember that one, as well as Mr. Potato Head. Lionel Trains are still part of my extended childhood!! One item I do not like is glitter...will not have anything coated with that stuff!!! Who knows what is still undiscovered...onward.......
Onward & upward! No trains or frogs in this house. Perhaps the next one! We hopefully will be getting another cleanout in the next few weeks and I should be able to show more there. We've been waiting on this one for several months, so who knows what it will be like when we actually get there!
@@PaperandMooseThere is a song "Toys in the Attic" by Aerosmith, released in 1975. A 1963 film by the same name is listed. I will have to check that one out...a haunted toy chest in the dark recesses of a cob web draped attic...home of Twilight Zone's Talky Tina??? You are so lucky to have all these neat adventures coming your way!!!! Going to Sal Army later today...a "Ribbit" hiding on a jammed shelf, perhaps??? 10/26.
Some of the old video game systems you have to take out the old screws and run a Cana Arean I'm to clean out all the dirt dust dirt grime and rust You have to clean him down pretty good
I saw my childhood toys that I loved as a kid. The yellow adventure team vehicle and that era GI Joe's. Get it together and give me a price. I've got a small m65 jacket to make it sweeter. Thanks
Yes it was, In 1983, Atari infamously buried unsold E.T. video game cartridges in a New Mexico landfill due to several key factors: The rushed development of a poor-quality game, massive overproduction in anticipation of high demand, financial troubles at Atari, and the decision to cut losses by landfill disposal. This event, surrounded by myths and controversies, is emblematic of the video game industry's failures. It wasn't until 2014 that the cartridges were unearthed, cementing this episode as a cautionary tale about rushed development and overproduction in the gaming industry.
I hope you realize there are some speakers that sell for thousands of $$$. You are unlikely to find them, but you should always check. Most of the really expensive ones are from the 30s and 40s - they look like old junk, and most pickers would throw them in the dumpster.
Will you still be helping Tony with the remainder of the house? Also, not to overstep, but are you having trouble with tmj? I thought I noticed just a slight alteration to your speech last couple videos, but couldn't be sure. If so, you have my sincere sympathy...had it since I was 18...one side of my mandible grew slightly longer than the left. Couldn't bear the thought of an osteotomy, so I've learned how to position through the years, but still have my appliance.
No TMJ, but over the last month I've had a root canal and the start of a crown to replace a cracked crown (which is what resulted in the root canal). This has resulted in a little pain in the area where the work was done. Also, when I get hungry and my sugar starts to decrease, my speech does become a bit different as I get "brain fog" and my energy level drops.
So ... was it a real "dead thang." Seems like there were a range of games spanning 20+ years. Multiple kids, I suppose. Pulling out Amigo's half body gave me a little start - appropriate for the Halloween season. Hope the SEGA & Atari work and do well for you. I saw a portable AM / FM radio - those are hard to find new these days! I guess phones get reception. A friend of mine had those big GI Joe figures and they all ended up looking like that. Such indignity. I hope there' a 6 Million Dollar Man action figure up there somewhere - bionic eye, lifted a car engine, rolled up his arm skin to find computer components underneath! Saw a piece of Spirograph, I think. Used to love that. Garland on Christmas trees was all the rage in the 70s & early 80s - it seems to have gone out of fashion. Based on our family photos, tinsel was big in the 50s & 60s? Why kind of shape is that house in? Looked like the 2 x 4 next to you about 15:00 had some bug damage. Thanks for a really interesting tour of that attic. Good luck to you all in cleaning the whole thing out - sounds like a Herculean effort! Have a great Thursday afternoon and weekend!
I'll have to order the piece to test out the Atari. It looks to be in better condition than the one I have from another cleanout & if it works, well I shall find myself maybe playing a game or two of Pac-Man and Donkey Kong! The rest of the house is nice. It is an older home that has great charm, but does need work in some areas. Some holes in walls, needs updated bathrooms, some ceilings look a little iffy, but otherwise move-in ready! Garland was big when I was little, but I always heard stories from my mom how they had the "rain" (the single string tinsel) when she was little & my grandmother would make them pick each piece off the tree so they could save it to use the next year. I don't use garland when I decorate, but perhaps this year I'll do a strand of simple beads. We shall see! Had another adventure today, but that video will be out next week! Heard the word no Tote Man at the flea market this weekend, so I might be able to sleep in!
@@PaperandMoose Looking forward to that next adventure! The tinsel tradition sounds very nice. Sleeping in on a Saturday - how decadent. My mother got hooked on Donkey Kong back in the nineties for a couple of months and stayed up all night playing then went to work. We thought we might find her sprawled over the controls and expired one morning. But the compulsion passed and she’s still with us thankfully.
Why do people leave such a mess for their children or others to clean up? I’ve been doing the death cleaning for awhile. I’m not leaving all this crap for my kids to deal with.
This attic is like the one in the Toy Story movie with all the missing toy parts 😳
Lol
I was thinking the exact same thing!
I thought the same thing! Did Sid live there? 😊
I was thinking 50's for the gijoe!
GIJoe's missing foot may be a battle injury🙃

Love a house clean out with Tony!
The Yogi head reminded me of the type that was on shampoo bottles for kids back in the day!
Oh wow! I had forgotten about those!! 😅
Puppies and Kitties. Made me laugh.
Wow! That was fun. Some of that stuff was really
cool. The 80'sand 90's were my kids years. But i loved it with them.

What a fun attic (except for that dead animal 😩). You always take everything in stride. 😊
So many blasts from the past!
Loved it. Nothing like a good attic! 💯🕷
Yippee! An excellent attic for Renee❣️🤗💖🦋

Looks like Syd's attic from Toy Story.
Sorry we won't be able to see this one...darn it..!! Oh well...enjoy yourself and keep us posted...🥰🥰
The tires on those first couple toy cars looked like Stompers battery powered toys. If so, they can be worth a ton of money. They can easily be mistaken for random common cheap toys but even pieces are worth a good amount.
I think all the old game boards would be cool hanging on a wall of a game room! Then all the pieces and parts displayed in glass jars!
That sounds like it would look pretty cool!
Some great stuff up there,well done Renee,💰💰💰💰👍🏻🤠🇬🇧
Hi renee this is the first video that had my time frame in the attic it just reminded me of the good ole days love seeing your excitement, we both can enjoy but for different reason thanks
Space Invaders! My favorite!
Please show us more! I was curious about what was in those dresser drawers behind you at the end!
Those old games were cool to find...... especially Happy Days! Love those Planet of the Apes & GI Joes ....brings back childhood memories, great vid as always! Happy Hunting!
Love the digging! The globe, use as lampshades.
The kids in this house had great Christmas and Birthday gifts given to them!
We love the clean outs!!! ❤❤👍👍

Wow,how fun for you.....and us!
Must have been a rough house to grow up in with all those broken toys. Christmas ornament reminded me of a top. Have fun, keep smiling 👍😁👍
They were well played with toys, that's for sure! Never did find poor GI Joe's foot though! Hope you are feeling well, Don!
That attic is filled with treasures but some assembly required 😂 Huge thumbs up for how hard you work 👍

Girl open a window and throw some of that stuff out and you can go down from time to time and pile up in back or a trailer
We will do that once we have the dumpsters. I brought down the sellable items that I found and started to bag up trash while I was working.
Yes more coffee 🎉
Sometimes cleaning the handheld video games can make Then work if you get rid of all corrosion And rust
I still have our Sega Genesis with games ❤️
I didn't have Sega growing up, I was still playing my Nintendo. My cousin had Sega, so I would play Sonic over at his house. I liked that game!
@@PaperandMoose oh yes sonic. This is my kids sega and games. They had cool spot,sonic and others.

Parts from and the airplanes from that aircraft carrier (12:30 or so) can go for money. Much easier to ship than the whole thing.
The vintage TV might sell at the flea market to somebody who wants to play Old School video games
It sold to a girl who plans on using it to "decorate" her shelf. It did have a great look to it!
Renee the original GI Joes did not have the fuzzy hair. I got the African American GI for Xmas around 1970 and still have the original box and uniform

Hope the rest of the clean out of the “broken house” goes well. Thanks for not sharing more the dead animal adventure.
The kids that lived there were not good with their toys. Also they had a lot of things. I don't know why nothing was organized.
Some of the old video game systems you have to take out the old screws and run a Cana Arean I'm to clean out all the dirt dust dirt grime and rust You have to clean him down pretty good
attic of the misfits toys
A lot of work means a lot of video, oh poo, I spoke to soon
I saw my childhood toys that I loved as a kid. The yellow adventure team vehicle and that era GI Joe's. Get it together and give me a price. I've got a small m65 jacket to make it sweeter.
Thanks
I wanna see the christmas
Wasn't the ET game the one they took and buried in the desert?
Yes it was, In 1983, Atari infamously buried unsold E.T. video game cartridges in a New Mexico landfill due to several key factors: The rushed development of a poor-quality game, massive overproduction in anticipation of high demand, financial troubles at Atari, and the decision to cut losses by landfill disposal.

That poor E.T. game, always gets a bad rap. I loved it!
The GI joe jeep is worth a few $$
Keep the empty boxes for things like old toys & video games. Often people have the items, but not the box & will pay just to get the box
You know? Donalds face can be repaired with a warm hair dryer? I did it to my mlp's
It is a wonder to me that if people save items that they do not box and 24:09 label.
I hope you realize there are some speakers that sell for thousands of $$$. You are unlikely to find them, but you should always check. Most of the really expensive ones are from the 30s and 40s - they look like old junk, and most pickers would throw them in the dumpster.
Dr Zaius is half the ape he used to be
A lot of scrap and things that are time-consuming to sell, there was probably just one thing up there that I would have wanted. And th
F***ing cat. That was the Atari.

Also, when I get hungry and my sugar starts to decrease, my speech does become a bit different as I get "brain fog" and my energy level drops.
So ... was it a real "dead thang." Seems like there were a range of games spanning 20+ years. Multiple kids, I suppose. Pulling out Amigo's half body gave me a little start - appropriate for the Halloween season. Hope the SEGA & Atari work and do well for you. I saw a portable AM / FM radio - those are hard to find new these days! I guess phones get reception. A friend of mine had those big GI Joe figures and they all ended up looking like that. Such indignity. I hope there' a 6 Million Dollar Man action figure up there somewhere - bionic eye, lifted a car engine, rolled up his arm skin to find computer components underneath! Saw a piece of Spirograph, I think. Used to love that. Garland on Christmas trees was all the rage in the 70s & early 80s - it seems to have gone out of fashion. Based on our family photos, tinsel was big in the 50s & 60s? Why kind of shape is that house in? Looked like the 2 x 4 next to you about 15:00 had some bug damage. Thanks for a really interesting tour of that attic. Good luck to you all in cleaning the whole thing out - sounds like a Herculean effort! Have a great Thursday afternoon and weekend!
I'll have to order the piece to test out the Atari. It looks to be in better condition than the one I have from another cleanout & if it works, well I shall find myself maybe playing a game or two of Pac-Man and Donkey Kong! The rest of the house is nice. It is an older home that has great charm, but does need work in some areas. Some holes in walls, needs updated bathrooms, some ceilings look a little iffy, but otherwise move-in ready! Garland was big when I was little, but I always heard stories from my mom how they had the "rain" (the single string tinsel) when she was little & my grandmother would make them pick each piece off the tree so they could save it to use the next year. I don't use garland when I decorate, but perhaps this year I'll do a strand of simple beads. We shall see! Had another adventure today, but that video will be out next week! Heard the word no Tote Man at the flea market this weekend, so I might be able to sleep in!
@@PaperandMoose Looking forward to that next adventure! The tinsel tradition sounds very nice. Sleeping in on a Saturday - how decadent. My mother got hooked on Donkey Kong back in the nineties for a couple of months and stayed up all night playing then went to work. We thought we might find her sprawled over the controls and expired one morning. But the compulsion passed and she’s still with us thankfully.
The attic is full of misfit toys… 😢.
All I need is to find Hermey the Elf from Rudolph!
Lol
Why do people leave such a mess for their children or others to clean up? I’ve been doing the death cleaning for awhile. I’m not leaving all this crap for my kids to deal with.
Why would the family care that you filmed or not? Makes you wonder, yikes!
