Some people enjoy treasure hunting as a hobby, while others make it their full-time job.
Treasure seekers rummage through people’s houses, garages, and basements in search of treasures and bid on storage units with unclaimed goods, so they never know what they will find.
Sometimes they find nothing, but other times they make valuable discoveries.
Anton Lulgjuraj began collecting old storage units in the state of New York years ago.
A man discovers a 50-year-old wallet in an abandoned locker, and the photos inside leave him speechless.
He has never found anything life-changing, but once he found a wallet, which made for a good newspaper story. When Anton bought a storage unit, he got a variety of items from an Air Force pilot.
But it was a small locker that caught Anton’s attention. He discovered a worn-out wallet when he opened it.
Diane Hall was the owner of the wallet. Inside, Anton found a California driver’s license from the late 1960s, an actor’s union card, and some old photos that piqued his interest.
He wanted to learn more about it and even track down the owner of the wallet.
As he continued researching online, he discovered that Diane Hall was indeed actress Diane Keaton.
He thought she would like to have her old wallet back, so he wrote her a message, but got no response, at least not until his story was picked up by the media.
« I guess everyone always hopes they’ll get their wallet back one day if they lose it, » Anton said. « And you know, that’s great. »
