I've got the Pokemon Quartz pokedex. It's pretty cursed.

Nothing too weird. Multiple manuals of objects that I own, probably the weirdest of which is a German manual for my Canon EOS 300 (I'm not German). And some machine learning papers, among which a paper from 1987, by Quinlan & Rivest, about decision trees (which is older than I am).
EDIT: Oh and another document older than me, a manual for the Minolta XG-9 that I'm lending from my dad.
I agree it feels weird to come across files that've been around for longer than you have.
(1984) Reflections of Trusting Trust by Ken Thompson
It's a really short PDF and it's not as technical as it seems, but gives a good lesson on how programs evolve, and what exactly trust means in the software world
Acute toxins fact sheet, guide to identifying snipe flies, several issues of Computer Gaming World from 1987, and 2 separate copies of the schematics for a Kenmore 148-1937.1 sewing machine.
