What would you collect if it wasn't Baseball?

I've always been tempted to dabble in Houdini memorabilia, along with early magic-related items, but haven't taken the plunge. Mainly because I've not paid close attention and/or learned enough to make intelligent purchases.

I'd collect Ranzino Smith shooting shirts and help the orphans.

I dabble in signed album covers (remember those?) If I were wealthy I would collect vintage guitars.

I have always liked rocks and fossils, though I don't really collect them.

I collect Hawaiiana: artwork, old postcards, hula dollies etc etc.

Baseball is only one of my collecting vices. I collect items from most forms of entertainment in the 1930s & 1940s -- music, radio, movies, sports, comics, pulps, magazines, worlds fairs, newspapers -- plus political, historical and wartime homefront memorabilia.

My latest acquisition is the original windowcard for 1934's "THE BLACK CAT" (shown alongside a diecut promotional puzzle issued by theaters to promote "KING KONG" in 1933).

Rick, I love that Black Cat piece; one of my alltime favorite movies.

All the seats in Congress held by Liberal Democrats- Would replace each with a true patriotic Republican- then we could each have the finest tea known to man,
(and woman) together with President Palin

If we could afford that hobby, we would also add ultra high condition, rare US
patterns and Territorial Gold coins-

In the interim, we're investing heavily in our own currency- ultra rare, top condition baseball memorabilia.

Probably college football memorabilia. But like Mike said thats a little too easy. I work for Anheuser-Busch so collecting AB stuff would be a natural fit. I think old household electronics and small appliances are cool as well.
