Thought this might be a good topic to discuss what people collect for a hobby.

As for me I used to be big into several things such as baseball cards, then it was arrowhead hunting and collecting for a while but now, not really anything.

Besides, maybe after I hear some of the stuff you collect, I'll have some good eBay moneymakers :D

I started collecting baseball cards in 1987. I've got damn near 100,00 cards I bet downstairs.

Luckily I have a boatload of Griffey Jr.'s and Randy Johnson's. McGuwire, Bonds, etc.

Anyone interested let me know. I'll let a few go. Mainly started collecting figuring on passing them down to a future son(s)(which I have 2).

matchbooks, from diners, pubs, restaurants, strip clubs...etc

My Grandmother collected matchbooks. When she died I inherited her collection. There are some really great covers. Most of the old hotels of Vegas in the 60's plus several from places in Europe and most US states.

I used to collect starting lineups, back in 88 when they first came out, just a young kid then, my dad helped me out.....did it until the mid 90's, until they started to expand, then just stopped.....now I guess they dont make them anymore, its the McFarlain figurines i guess....

I collect lesbian porn. ....Or so it would seem. It wasn't a conscious decision or anything. Just sorta happened organically.

Anybody know if Aurora Snow and Christine Young appear together on anything?

Yeah, I have a few that are like that.... I also have a couple of the taller "shepherd" type walking sticks.... I have one that I bought in an estate sale that is hollow and the handle screws off to reveal a glass testtube, which I assume was used for hiding money or drugs or something....

Or vaseline when the sun went down, and the sheep got frisky.

Recently, Very High Value Coin (US) and long time ago (still collecting because of the ongoing series) all the Star Wars comics made by Dark Horse from the beginning. I have ALL OF THEM, dating back to the 80's. My oldest son will get them when i'll die. I think he will have something quite valuable by then... :)
