I really lack focus in my memorabilia collection. Ironically that is exactly what I love about memorabilia. There is such a variety available I never have become bored with it. I still collect cards but as I have gotten older, 49 tomorrow, I find myself more drawn to it than ever. I go through memorabilia collecting phases that last about year. My most recent phase has been original type 1 photography. I purchased about 100 of the in the past year. I think this tangential approach to collecting memorabilia has given my collection an interesting and gratifying variety. Each piece reflects a different period of my journey in collecting. Unfortunately I don't have a cool man cave like many I see posted here. I still have four kids at home and space remains a premium. I created the picture below as wall paper for my computer. It displays some of my favorite things and reflects my changing tastes over the years.

I focus on 14" Mini Bats, Player model split finger gloves in the original box, Old store model bats, and salesman sample bats and gloves. But like the poster before, any baseball item that catches my eye is fair game if I have the $$$ to buy.

P.S.- I would love to have a nice Lemon Peel and/or Belt Ball if anyone is interested in trading. I don't see me getting any of the ones in REA.
