For your boyfriend who enjoys collecting vintage or antique items, you can surprise him with a meaningful and personal birthday gift that aligns with his unique interest. Here are a few ideas to consider:

1. Vintage Pocket Watch: A classic vintage pocket watch can make an excellent gift for someone who appreciates antiquity. Look for a timepiece from a specific era that he finds intriguing or one with unique engravings to make it even more special.

2. Antique Map: Consider gifting him an antique map of a place that holds sentimental value to him. Whether it's a map of his hometown, a favorite vacation spot, or a location he dreams of visiting, it will make a thoughtful and visually appealing addition to his collection.

3. Vintage Vinyl Records: If your boyfriend has a love for music, dive into his favorite genre and search for vintage vinyl records from iconic artists or albums. Pay attention to his musical preferences and try to find a record that holds a special meaning for him.

4. Antique Books: If he is an avid reader or has a particular interest in literature, an antique book could be a perfect gift. Choose a first edition or a book from a specific time period that aligns with his taste or favorite author. You can also consider getting a book that complements his collection of vintage items, such as a book on vintage cars or fashion.

5. Retro Gaming Console: If he enjoys video games, consider giving him a retro gaming console that allows him to play classic games from the past. Whether it's an Atari, Nintendo, or Sega console, it will not only satisfy his love for collecting but also provide him with hours of nostalgic gaming fun.

6. Vintage Camera: If he has an interest in photography or enjoys capturing moments, a vintage film camera can be a delightful gift. Look for a camera model from a particular era that he admires, and include some rolls of film for him to start using it right away.

7. Antique Jewelry: Surprise him with a unique piece of antique jewelry that matches his style. Whether it's a vintage ring, pocket watch necklace, or cufflinks, he is sure to appreciate the sophistication and history associated with such a gift.

Remember, finding the perfect vintage or antique item requires time and effort. Spend time researching, visit antique stores, and explore online marketplaces dedicated to vintage collections. It's essential to understand his preferences and the specific eras or items he gravitates towards. By giving him a gift that aligns with his passion for collecting vintage or antique items, you're not only adding to his collection but also showing that you appreciate and support his unique interests.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
