| Dec 26, 2020 at 23:55 | comment | added | user14111 | I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Walter Miller's "The Will" from 1954, but the way I remember it it's a little boy who buries his collectibles with a note saying, please sell this stuff, use the money to build a time machine. I remember the future people at story's end coming in their time machine and saying "little boy, ve fix" or something like that. OK, I'll look up the story and post an answer. | |
