I collect because it brings me closer to the game I love - makes me feel like I own a piece of history and and a direct connection to the game itself. I am drawn to prewar memorabilia, photos, and cards mostly because they are among the few records we have for the players and the game of that time. Today, there are so many images, cards, and videos of the players and the game - and while that is amazing as a fan, it makes collecting more modern stuff less appealing to me due to that overexposure.
Also, I really enjoy displaying my stuff...rearranging and updating displays is a really fun hobby within the hobby for me. And the best part of it is hanging out in that space just soaking it all in.
