Ok. So let's see who is out there. I am curious of who else is out there that collects things similar to me, as I am sure many of you are too. Some of us have introduced ourselves in the "Welcome" thread and the "Show me your displays.." thread, but let's get a more comprehensive roster of who collects vintage memorabilia and what. I'll start. |

I never get to post about my collection, since I don't collect cards, so I can finally participate in one of these threads. I don't have a lot left, but here goes: |

I search for anything to do with Jimmie Foxx. His personal items. Cards. game tickets from the world series he was in. Magazines where he is on the cover. Awards given to him. His autograph...I have about 70 original photos, both wire and news. A complete 35 wheaties box in like new condition. Cleats with his name engraved. Rare pins of him. hundreds of other items. More than I have time to type. Occasionally I will pick up a hack wilson item, or gehrig. Some times a little ruth thing or two. What i really covet are original photos with Ruth and Foxx together. My wife even lets me hang one in the family room. Jimmie and babe are golfing. I use to write back and forth with Jimmies daughter. back when people wrote on paper. Also occasionally A connie mack piece, and a Phil. A's piece. I have a big heavy ink well given to Connie mack after the 29 and 30 world series wins. It has two gold leaf elephants and a clock. Gorgeous. |

Besides cards, I collect pre 1930 bats, mostly 19th century. Mainly I collect odd looking bats, unusual shapes and wood types. I have a number of ring, mushroom, and ball knob bats, as well as several bunting bats and composite bats. My collection totals around 75. |

I collect prewar card sets, mostly 30's sets and pre 1930 bats, mostly 19th century bats. I've collected cards for 25+ years and bats for about 7-8 years. I posted some pics of a few 19th century bats yesterday and will post more from time to time. I especially enjoy homemade bats and bats with odd shapes. I have one carved from a tree limb and another that appears to be a piece of fence post shaved down to bat size as well as a 40 inch monster bat made in 1900. |

Henry- the magic word in your description was "retired." That's my goal too (even though I've been semi-retired since I started working) |
