No. Research is about the interest in new knowledge, while this is nostalgia. This summer I also bought a beautiful Norwegian built 15 foot Herwa boat from 1958. The boats used to be just nicer.
I bought it 15 years ago from an 83 year old lady in Falun, Sweden. She bought it new with her father in 1973. When I took it over I was told that no one had ever sat in the backseat before and that she was selling it because the nearest intersection had been converted into a roundabout.
