What do you collect?

markc · Dec 24, 2005

I used to collect Star Wars stuff when I was younger (the original films). Have most of the cards, had lobby posters, things like that. I don't collect anything at the moment. I don't have enough room for the stuff I already own.

Nice coin collection eddyk :, ) ..

What makes it even more impressive is that I only started collecting last April, and i'm an unemployed 17/18 year old.

That's not fair... we only get $200 here and with the exchange rate...

But we have a higher cost of living... Check out our camera prices

I choose the Weapons or military equipment but what I collect is antique pnuematic arms. Airguns but not your typical Daisy BB gun. I collect rifles, pistols, shotguns and walking stick air canes from the 1600's to the late 1800's.

The earliest one I personally have is from 1714-34 (not quite sure of the exact date). It's a .32 calibre Liege Lock rifle. The one with the largest bore is a .62 calibre Stautenmayer rifle in a case from 1817. I am working on aquiring a Air Cane from approx 1820-30.

I have around 20 Canes, most of which are from .32 to .36 calibre with one at .40 calibre. I have half again as many rifles of which 8 or so are in cases.

Dude, where are the Cameras??? This is the TPF after all, cameras are our tools.

I collect cameras, but then again you'd know that from the line above. I also collect autographs of any kind, from Classical Music notables to Sports notables (with a few R&R in between).

That's what I was wondering!

Vintage cameras (and I agree, the poll needs to be modified)

and wine. Though the wine is eventually meant to be consumed, some of it is also meant to be stored for 10-20 years before reaching maturity, so it feels more like a collection at times.

The hubby has a coin collection that he doesn't add to much these days, since I started with the cameras and we're both into the wine collection.

Why ins't 'porn' on the list?

But anyways, I have a small coin collection. None of them are in Mint condition like yours, but, I like to look at them everynow and then. Mostly are Australian coins.

Here is my total coin collection.

Here is on of the coolest ones i have.

But, my main collection is of Hot Wheels cars. I don't know why I love them so much, but, I just do. Some are over 5 years old. I am waiting till I am a lot older to maybe sell them. I have over 60 of them.
