What else do you collect?

Porcelain and tin signs. The more colorful the better!

I'm all over the place:

- Non-sports cards
- Vintage comic books (especially precode horror)
- Vintage tobacco advertising signs
- Vintage magazines (especially early Monroe covers from the 40s)

I collect various items of Jazz bassist/composer Charles Mingus (I play bass, as well.) I've pieced together some memorabilia including autographs, magazines, concert posters, and so on. No pictures, as I haven't bothered to document any of it. I should make that a goal for 2025.

On the same topic, I collect "Classic Vibe" Jazz and Precision basses made by Squier (Fender's "entry level" brand.) I focus on those that were produced in China between 2008 and 2013. Production quality from this period was exceptional, and rivals that of the U.S. made Fender basses of similar type. I have 2 Precisions (2008 and 2012) and 1 Jazz (2009.)

Sometimes you just gotta laugh!!
Because of your image, I decided to look up Rory Calhoun on Wikipedia, and look at this highlighted section (referring to Lita Baron):

Personal life (color emphasis added)
Calhoun was married three times, once to his first wife and twice to his second wife. He had three daughters with first wife Lita Baron (m. 1948–1970), Cindy, Tami, and Lorri. When Baron sued Calhoun for divorce, she named Betty Grable as one of 79 women with whom he had adulterous relationships. Calhoun replied to her charge: "Heck, she didn't even include half of them".

HA HA!!!! What a charmer he was!!!!

The other stuff that I collect are somewhat older than my baseball cards.

Wow, some really awesome stuff, wish we had a "Like" button!


Just like my baseball card focus on primarily Post-War, so is my other passion...I collect classic cars from 1955 to 1973. My collection is rather varied, from muscle cars to VW's...I love them all. There has been some tough decisions in my past...a certain card, or a certain car. The cars usually win out on big purchases, you can't drive a baseball card!

My collection -

1956 Chevrolet Nomad
1960 Chevrolet Corvette
1963 Ford Falcon Sprint
1964 VW Bus
1965 Ford Mustang
1967 Ford Mustang
1967 Ford F-250
1968 MG Midget
1968 VW Bus
1971 VW Bus
1971 VW Super Beetle
1971 VW Super Beetle Convertable
1971 Ford F-100
1973 Chevrolet Corvette
1973 VW Karman Ghia

Those are some great cars, John. I had a Falcon in college. It was a 64 and not nearly as cool as yours. I would love to collect cars, but I only have the basement to keep my stuff.
