Thanks Guys. It seems that for most of us the transition to other areas of collecting would not be a problem. In a few cases, as some of you have pointed out, this is already the case, and in others, similar reasons for collecting sports-related stuff can easily be fulfilled in other areas.
I guess this is not surprising considering the fact that we are all exposed to a variety of collecting areas and our interests can shift with age. To me this suggests that although what we are passionate about and collect may vary the underlying common thread for all of us is the treasure hunt and ultimately the find.
By the way Adam, that movie stamp picture of Lon Chaney would be something that would keep me up at night - as would the two exhibit cards below it, although for completely different reasons.
