[QUOTE="user 2031, post: 388253, member: 2031"] I knew there had to be a thread... found it! I like reading about and seeing other peoples' collections. At one time or another, I collected almost everything, or so it seems. I have always liked man-things from earlier generations, razors, aftershave bottles, knives, guns, etc... I had stored up quite a collection. I also used to collect old monastery art and architecture. Recently, (two or three years ago), I got to looking around and wondering what in the world I was doing with all of this "stuff". So, I have been in the process of eliminating tons of the stuff. I still have a garage full that I am slowly eliminating on ebay. I am finding that the more I get rid of, the freer I feel. I have kept my favorite "useful" pieces of various collections, but the majority I just realized no longer brought me any pleasure. The only thing I have kept that doesn't serve any real purpose is a few of my old pressed metal trucks from my childhood. Just can't seem to want to part with them. So, I don't know that I actually have a "collection" of them. There are about 4 that were mine as a kid and I have bought two more in recent years. Collecting can be fun, but it can also be a sickness. [/QUOTE]
