About this puzzle

Toys age strangely: a simple wooden or plastic object can feel ancient while a shelf-worn 1980s craze feels recent. This ranking spans well over a century, and the oldest item here is a Victorian optical device most people assume is a mid-century plaything. Simplicity is not a reliable clue to age, and neither is how cheap something looks.
