Hello Gary and all. I started with meteorites that I had found and then I
started to buy some and so on. My collecting has now spilled over into Gold,
some of which I have found. But I have also bought and traded for some of
it. Then I found myself acquiring knives, it started with a Gibeon knife
I collect books, specifically novels that were made into movies. Some of
them, such as The Last Picture Show turn out to be quite valuable in their

Mainly meteorites but I have been an old marble collector too. Antique marbles
are very expensive but I collect them when they come around.
Also skulls. Everything from a Gaboon Viper skull to a human skull... Skulls
are interesting. I have a nice case full.
Also US mint coin errors. That's j

Good grief!
Where do you all house such huge collections? or collections of collections,
in some cases? Or do you have a warehouse in your backyards???

This has been a fun thread to watch.
When I started selling meteorites I decided not to allow myself to collect them and so for years I didn't but I still collected other things in fact I picked up a couple of other lines of collectables to compensate for the denial in meteorite collecting.
Hello all,
I have always been a collector and usually end up going off the deep end in
various items. Stamp collectors use the term study to justify purchasing
vast accounts of pretty much the same item. I guess I "study" a lot of
things.

Another packrat here. I've collected a little bit of everything (it seems like)
over the years. Fossils-- especially ammonites and trilobites (I have an
inordinate fondness of Flexicalymene sp. trilobites from around Ohio-- I have
dozens of them) and large shark teeth. Other minerals to some ext
ites and tektites, of course...
