Thread Name: What do You collect?
Subject: RE: BS: What do You collect?
Of things I actively seek out, vinyl and shellac, athough I try to keep a lid on it.

arrrrgh! on the other hand........in this household, there is also a thirty year collection of stereo magazines (Hi Fi World/Hi Fi News & Record Review/Stereophile/Speaker Builder etc.)

It got so bad, a couple of years ago, we scrounged a tin garden shed, to house the less perused issues, pending an after the fact excavation of a basement under the front of the house. That has sort of diminished the number of cardboard boxes stacked up the bedroom walls and elewhere for the time being but....

We also seem to be the repository of things that other family members and in-laws couldn't part with after moving into smaller quarters, such as, old rototillers, boxes of nails and cans of screws, cans of woodstain, old tools, old tack, boxes of toys and stuffed animals.

To top this off, there has also been an accumulation of various musical instruments over the years.
