1979 Time Capsule - 40th Birthday Gift for Men or Women

This was a gift to my son for his 40th birthday. I was embarrassed by the low quality and the size of the contents. I wished I had opened it before I gave it to him. It is okay for maybe $10 and not meant to be a true reminder of 1979. In fact I was looking at one for 1959 for my sister and it is they same contents with a different year. Not what I intended for sure.

Was a good idea, fell short in my mind of cost and what was included.

Our 40th birthday person got a big kick out of the time capsule. He recognized the items included and everyone attending seemed to enjoy remembering the items from their youth. I'd definitely buy this again and recommend it as a clever gift idea. Just be sure to note the overall size so you are not disappointed. It was a bit smaller than I imagined and miniature versions of some items.

I bought this to give as a gift for someone who has everything. She had a great time opening it and her kids thought it was super neat to see what was popular back in her day.

I gave this to a friend for her 40th birthday. It was a huge success and she loved it. I couldn’t be happier with it myself.

Really liked going down “memory lane” with the items in the time capsule. It was purchased for my son’s 40th birthday.

The idea is cute, but the value for the money was horrible. for $40 you would be better off buying a card with things that happened that year an getting the items in here (slinky, marbles, rubick's cube, yourself. All were miniature versions. Horrible value for the money.

Huge hit for our 1979 themed 40th work anniversary! Cool items and nice flashback!
