... thirties at least, and sometimes later. It was entirely possible that sometimes, a lordship would even skip a generation. The End of the Line Clause had been instigated to allow younger wizards to take on the mantle of their families as soon as they came of age, so that the family would have a Head again. The Wizengamot wasn't nearly as old, and their laws were mostly derivatives of the Old Laws; although, they had instigated an age limit of twenty five for their members, which was why Harry had to wait longer to claim his seat than he would to claim his lordship. He moved on, glancing over other pieces displayed in the cases, but the item that really jumped out at him was his mother's engagement ring. He didn't know why he took it, but he just knew that it felt right. He made sure, however, that neither of his guardians saw him take the piece of jewelry, not wanting to answer any questions. He picked out a few books with interesting titles, placing them in the sack Sirius was carrying, before they left the vault. Two more quick stops, at the Black and McGonagall Vaults, and the group was once more on the ground floor. With a goodbye and a nod of thanks to Urg, the trio made their way once more down the alley. They wanted to get home quickly, to avoid any unnecessary risks, but Sirius insisted they make a quick stop so that he could get a certain gift for Ginny for her birthday; Harry grinned as he saw his godfather buy his girlfriend a wand holster.

Harry stepped inside the shop and looked around briefly, before he went to the counter and struck up a conversation with the wizard working that morning. Sirius and Minerva listened with interest as their charge debated the pros and cons of different brooms that would be best for someone wanting to play chaser. After a few minutes, Harry decided on a Nimbus 2001, and he handed over the money quickly, taking the wrapped package with a grin and a "Thank you." The shopkeeper smiled in return as the group left. Sirius shook his head. "A little expensive, don't you think? Don't get me wrong, Ginny will love it, but what about her mother?" Harry grimaced, but stood firm by his decision. "Ginny's an amazing flyer, and she needs a broom to match. Is it wrong that I want to spoil her?" Minerva smiled as they entered the Leaky Cauldron. "Not at all, Harry. You care for her. That's a good thing." Harry smiled, and the three immediately took the Floo back to McGonagall Castle. If anyone didn't know, DVD's were actually invented in 1995. I checked! There were some less advanced versions before that, but the actual DVD format was invented in '95. Another site says ...
