100% but #28 are not bed pans but bed warmers.
Pretty easy for a 78-year-old. 🤪. No. 15 is actually a revolving stand for a a very small Christmas tree. The trunk goes in the top, of course, and set in place by the thumb screws. Wind it up and it revolves to the holiday melody of a music box. And, yes, those are bed warmers, not bed pans. Put some coals in ‘em to warm the sheets on a cold winter’s night.
Yep, that was a musical tree stand. They fell out of fashion once people started putting strings of electric lights on even very small trees, which would wind around the thing if you used a rotating stand. They still make that type of thing, I think, but the tree and stand are all artificial and a single unit, and the tree either does half-rotations back and forth, or has a rotary electrical connector in it (which actually are pretty common). But those are pre-decorated, or even more frequently are plastic trees with LEDs set into them.
38 right, two wrong. First off, while I've heard of (or used/handled) almost everything on your list, I have never in my life heard of a bull roarer. I'll have to look it up, lol. The other one I missed was the Mangler. I knew what it was, it's a device to wring water out of freshly washed and rinsed laundry, I've just never heard it called a Mangler before. My grandmother had that device, I always thought of it as a wringer but the option you gave of "clothes press" fit that best, I thought. It was part of an old-styled non-automatic washer, it had a big wash tub with an electric agitator, but with no lid. You'd fill it with soap and water for washing, and then drain that and fill it with clean water for rinsing. You did all this by turning the water taps on and off by hand, turning the agitator motor switch on and turning it off when you figured it had gone long enough, etc. Then you turned on this clothes wringer, that you call a Mangler, which sits in such a way that it's either over the washer's tub basin, or over its own catch basin, and you ran the wet clothes through it. This squeezed most of the water out of the fabric, but for some thicker fabrics, or clothes with thick seams and such, you could run them through two or three times to get as much water out as possible. Then you hung the drier-but-still-damp laundry up on a clothesline outside to dry. With clothespins. By the time I was growing up, my folks had recognizable top-loading washers and front-loading dryers, but Grandma refused all offers to replace her ancient tub/agitator/wringer setup with anything more modern. She was born in 1896, so just having electric motors running things was new-fangled enough for her, lol.
I enjoyed this nostalgia quiz, I got mixed up on the bed pan which looks like a bed warmer. I think I got about 5 wrong, Thanks!
24 is not a pliers it's snips
37 out of 40
Three I didn’t know.
38 0f 40 so close lol
Only missed 4
Got 37 right.
I got 38. I missed the music box and the ash tray.
Lost track of score but it was more than 5.
About number 6 I was asking myself how many of these I had to sit through. By the way the article you called tongs was really a pair of sugar nippers used to chop up solid blocks of sugar.
30/40
I got 37 out of 40. I'm a baby boomer who never heard of a hurdy gurdy, theolyte or mangle. I agree with troy boy that #28 are bed warmers not bed pans.
39/40
I missed three items, but I'm really drunk

Great 😊
I must be old as I got most of them. Either I knew from “lore” or I have seen my parents use them. I am 75 as I write this. Congrats to all others who were bold enough to admit they could put comments.
