What do you collect

[Shadowglen]

Not sure if there is a thread for Collecting already. If so this can be moved. I am always amazed by what people collect. I am 47 I still ride skateboards but my passion is in collecting them. here are just a few in my office at the shop.

WOW impressive, someone likes dogtown

I'll be 40 in August I skate as much as humanly possible. I have about a dozen decks but they are all beat and not worth displaying. I wish I kept them all but the oldest thing I have is a H-Street Jason Rodgers from around 91. I'm part of a old man skate cartel here in St. Louis. It always amazes me how many old heads still skate.

Sweat collection man I'm totally jealous. Ironically I'm printing a few hundred decals for my buddies shop right now. They are all his name based off of old school logo's

Well I have done work for Wes Humpston one of the orignators of Dogtown Skates. Most of the decks are his art and signed by him. We have done Real short run limeted edition Laser engraved decks for him.

free makeup bonus bags..weird collection i know. But yup, dillard or macys has the gift, i'm there. Just was there tuesday to pre-order for the lancome makeup bag... spent $80 just to get the extra 3 juicy tube lipglosses for free with my free bag, and sadly, i rarely wear lipgloss.... some day i will regret this.

Watches. Nothing fancy, just Seiko automatics.. mostly divers. And tools. And debt.. I'm not a debt collecter.. I just collect debt.

Also Guilty of this

Cigars

 

[SightLine]

An odd one most are unaware that there is even a worldwide collectors association for. Antique electric fans (and some non-electric).

 

[Billct2]

Old Signs and sign books...though ebay has driven up the price it's hard to get any good deals
Also handthrown stoneware pots

I collect tokens at the bar..... the ones good for another drink.

I have over 4,250 of them, but not all at the same time. I'm constantly using them almost as quickly as I get them.

1900's thru 1970's costume jeweery. funny thing is I collect it but rarely ever wear any jewelry. I just like it. you can see what was popular during a decade like 50's & early 60's when we started looking or going into space, the comet shaped pins were made and so on.

Wow Shadowglen, excellent collection! Very envious of the old school style. I've always been a big fan of Todd Bratrud's artwork, so I've got a bunch of his decks from Consolidated, along with a few of his sidejobs with the Unbelievers and Real.

Also, I collect hand-printed silkscreen rock posters. I'm in the middle of a move currently, otherwise I'd post pictures. Maybe later when I get settled in, whenever that would happen.
