With Homecoming Week in full swing and Happy Valley buzzing with alumni, the nostalgia began pouring in.

If you’re a truly dedicated Penn Stater, you may have a handful of memorabilia that you’ve collected throughout the years from various vendors and stores.

It could be a vintage box of Wheaties with Joe Paterno on the front or maybe a Penn State mouse trap. Even if it’s been collecting dust for the past couple of decades or just came into your possession, bring on the nostalgia.

Whatever collectibles you may have sitting in your Penn State shrine basement, we want to see your unique items!
