A relic (found my first mixing palette)

I thought I share this little find I had last time, when I was at home. I still have loads of stuff in the cellar and attic of my parents at home, every time I visit, I make a little research what I could take with me. Last time I found a box with old figures, paints and stuff, along with my very first painted figures and this palette. I used it for several years, sometimes I tried to chisel out the old paint, but was quite difficult. Now I cut it at a place where the paint was about the thickest and made a photo of it:

Looks funny. Does it bring back good (sentimental) feelings? :) ;)

Good imagery, it really looks like that :-D
Yes, kind of nostalgia, you know... I think I used it last time around 1997-98 :-)

I might be wrong it could have been still in use in '99 ;), but quite a looong time has passed since then... :)

Nice pic :) I use cd covers as a palette so if one gets to dirty I just get another :)
