I used to collect baseball cards-stopped in the late 80's as there got to be too many sets. Now I collect a few first edition books. And I have a bunch of cigar bands
![]() So, you like the civil war. I enjoy reading about that period. My cousin wrote a book about the young kids in the war. Too Young to Die. He is a huge CW buff-does the re-enactments and all. |

I used to collect game worn NHL jerseys, but I just sold my last one this week. Had over 100 at one point.

I did collect coins for about he last 16 years or so... but recently I have become a bit bored with that hobby and have started selling a bunch of them off... I will probably go back when I get a bit closer to retirement, but for now I just can't justify the cost...

![]() -- I used to be big into baseball cards, memorabilia, and autographs; kind of collect art and crystal; horde books; collect certain first editions; dabbled in coins; firearms; pipes; wine; decanters; chess sets; nerdy historical stuff; and just lately started collecting ephemera from some of my grandfather's old casinos. Edit to add: could easily get really into pens and watches, just afraid of the extra resource drain and time commitment--so I'm starting off slowly with these. Damn addictive personality.

Watches - mostly mechanical automatic Japanese watches, but I have a couple Swiss ones too. Haven't had the funds to buy a new watch in 5 years though.
Cameras - 35mm film cameras from the 30's - 80's, rangefinders and SLRs, mostly a Nikon and Retina ho. Can't swing Leica collecting yet. Anything related to WWII - History nut and reenactor, so I have a lot of stuff related to this. My wife might try to claim I collect fishing rods/reels/lures, but I certainly don't think of those things as "collecting". It's just stuff you have to buy to use for what you like to do (kinda like cigars!). |

Also: Military bring-back firearms US stamps 1900-2000 Military uniforms 27th Division memorabilia/militaria My wife says I collect collections.
