>I've got an amazing Dust Bunny collection!  

are they on top of your degrees?

I've got a fine collection on all things uppity and elite,  and of course, in the bottom dregs of the recesses too!  

I have an award-winning Dust Bunny collection. Also, larger animals. But I don't seem to have rats!

Magazines - Surfer, Surfing, Surfer's Journal, other misc. surfing mags, Nat Geo, others. Hundreds in all. Lots of art - walls are full, so are closets. A few hundred each of CDs and LPs. Buncha ticket stubs.

As a kid I collected seashells, rocks, and mushrooms.

Baseball Cards for many decades

64 on this side of the turf. 

Also, I have two vintage Schwinn "Collegiate's"  which was my last bike as a kid in the 60's, that run like a dream.  Not a collector, though, generally speaking.

I am decollecting, trying to sort and get rid of things. As an artist who works with color, found objects, paper, cool things, pressed flowers, more paper, paint, postage stamps, rubber stamps both commercially made and homemade, inks, I have collected so many things of so many types. And/or, I haven't gotten rid of very many things in the 40+ years I've lived in this house and before. I have a lot of things and stuff in a small space. I just collect things. Kitchen things, containers, tins, cigar boxes, just things.

I collect decks of playing cards, games, toys, old little cars, baskets, postcards, paper ephemera including tickets, books, music. I have a very large collection of Day of the Dead art. I have a lot of tools. I collect ribbons, things made of cloth/lace, sari trim, and I had an antique store in the early '70s so I have things I collected back then. I really have a lot of collections.

That left is sick!

I collect antiques. Prize possession is a 60 inch 1880’s roll top desk in mint condition. Many other really cool pieces. Some from 1700’s

My son since he was 4 or so has collected wet naps. He has an entire drawer full of em.

Says if we have another hurricane and lose water he can take a shower with them.

I was saving marijuana seeds like a Pharaoh.

Seeds of all different varieties of plants, rock/bmx/cannabis magazines, comic books, baseball bards, kids art projects/drawing/handmade cards, brochures/wrist bands/tix from events, 30 years of the gazette magazine that my aunt used to send to me from Montreal… I even inherited my grandmothers spoon collection, which I bought most of them for her, and have been known to grab a new spoon every so often. Basically a lot of worthless shit with a WHOLE lot of sentimental value.

Guitars, Basses, Mandolins, Microphones, Effects Pedals
I have more than I can manage.

psychological problems

I recently saved these LIFE Magazines from the recycling bin (my Mom was trying to get rid of lots of clutter before her recent move).  My Dad, as a clergyman, traveled to Selma in 1966 to show support for the marchers.  He probably kept these two issues as a memento of a small connection to a Great Man.  1968 (50 years ago) and they have my parents' Santa Cruz address.

 

I have them on display in my office as part of Black History Month.

 

 

I remember seeing a newspaper clipping from the small-town New York paper about my Dad's (and his boss, my Grandfather's) plan to join other clergy in Selma.  I hope that that is still around.

Great family history, John, and so good that you were there at the moment to retrieve and save them.
