Post a picture of your collection.
Nothing I have is really worth a lot of money, I just like 'em.

Can't post pictures but I have a complete set of the late 1940s, early 1950s bronzed dinosaurs that were sold at Natural History museums.
Some nice pre WW2 baseball gloves.
Quite a few first editions of works by Kerouac, Corso and Ginsberg.

I bought quite a few from the Natural History Museum in DC - $1 for a small, $2 for a large
and bought the rest later in life.
Thanks for the link.

(53,410 posts)But I'm always fascinated by people's collections.
I moved too many times to ever think about amassing things. If anything I tend to cull things a lot more than others do.
Most of my collection is still packed away in the shed where it was put back in 2010 when we tried to sell the house.
Anyway, I collect copper stuff. Plates and cups and teapots and kettles and things like that.
I even have two copper birdfeeders
And the backsplash behind my kitchen sink is copper, as is the faucet and paper towel holder.

(3,539 posts)I actually have 2 of them that he signed for me. Most drivers will sign a piece if you mail it to them with return postage. Depending on the driver it may take a few months for the car to come back.
