You guys are sounding a lot like Robert Crumb.

Crumb has one of the best collections of rare blues and jazz 78’s out there. The book I posted above is full of stories like this.

I remember as a teenager an older friend took me over to Bob Hite (of Canned Heat) house in Topanga Canyon. I’d never seen so many 78s. Wall to wall blues and jazz. Wonder what happened to that collection?

I just finished this set of 15 stickers called the 1990 Marvel Prism set. They're really nice but it was an unauthorized series, not sanctioned by Marvel. The back of each card says "Kodak Paper" so they were probably done in someone's basement. In 1990, they were found in vending machines like the one shown.

Crumb has a lot of CD cover art out there and also plays banjo with the East River String Band. Here's some of the CDs.

Rare video game display pieces that Best Buy and Gamestop used to advertise upcoming games. I placed a DVD to show a sense of scale. Porsche collectibles are always cool when I see them and I just picked up an Ultraviolet life size toy in April with only 225 miles on it. 2016 GT3RS

My memory is that Kareem had a great collection but it was destroyed in a fire.  Any remember?

Those are fantastic!!  Love the Daytona!!  I don't have a Speedy yet, but perhaps one day...

The Longines is spectacular - I have one, but it's a 1970s/80s quartz - so not as cool as yours.

I am not familiar with Royce watches, but thats kind of cool!

Just picked up a new watch. It's not old,  but has that feel to it.  Also got a watch winder that has a few empty slots I hope to fill up over time.
