Default Collector of Collections

When I was younger (mid-teens) my father called me a collector of collections. I dabbled in almost everything (US coins, stamps, Coke bottles, Matchbox cars, US state pennants, antique militaria, etc.). As I have matured (and accrued adult financial responsibilities - i.e. children), I have trimmed it back to baseball cards of course and Russo-Japanese War miltaria, antique sea going paraphernalia (sailors sea bags, bosun pipes, marlinspikes) and my 1963 Mercury Comet Station Wagon. I know, still pretty wild in range but still all close to my heart.
