Collectors And Their Collections

Well for the most time,it is my collection of Golden Age video games,(i.e. Super Nintendo, Game boy games, n64 video games and two n64s, a few ps3s.)

One Dreamcast that is in okay condition, with a few dozen comics I do keep in somewhat mint condition - I also do have an assortment of Happy Meal Toys I noticed in a huge zip lock bag, they probably need to be santized if I want to sell them as well -

So that is my Newest twisted collection, and a lot of unburned albums, I do not know why I have not listen to them just yet, better to have them not scratched up either.
 
It's fun to collect. When I was a kid, I collected waxed paper drink glasses that had an establishment logo on it. It was a real treat to get a fountain drink back in the day and the glasses were unique. They had no value. Perhaps they might be worth something today. But every drive in had their own glass. And ever fast food had theirs, though there weren't that many fast food places and my chance to get a soda at one was even more rare. I probably had twenty to thirty glasses that I tossed when I moved out of my parents home. It was a respectable but worthless collection that was fun.
 
We have these glases that we got forever ago, and we use them every day, still I never touch them, because they where my father's glasses.

Old glass is so cool! Before I started working for my dad, I worked for a pig farmer. He was a drunk but paid a dollar a day to make sure the pigs were fed and their waller was wet and muddy. Besides sipping on the last liquor in his empty bottles and eating the hearts of watermelons and swimming in the creek, we would dig old bottles out of the pile and plink them with our bb guns. I think about all of those old bottles we broke and wonder what sort of value we wasted.
