I collect Autographs. Have over 5000. They're so easy to store, just put in page protectors and in a binder.

I'm a collector of many silly things....roosters of any kind, I like to collect wine glasses (usually a pair). I have salt dishes and numerous glass things....sounds like a lot, but I limit myself on most of the things except for Roosters. They are all over my kitchen and dinning room.... :wink: :wink:....and I love to read so lots of books which I trade off with my SIL..

Animals, lol, Royal Crown Derby paperweights and sewing machines! I finally managed to add a Necchi Mirella to my collection and the little beauty arrived today.

I almost forgot to add all my horse-themed jewelry ;-)
