ghoulaid Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 (edited) I still collect old comics from bubble gum like Bazooka Joe (almost complete), Fleer Funnies, Dubble Bubble, Tommy Swell, Archie, etc. Before that I collected pin back buttons that came from gum machines (Famous Monsters, Beatles, Batman, Green Hornet, etc). Used to collect non-sports cards and still have a large collection of older baseball, football cards (yawn).

OldGuy Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Any football cards in particular you're looking for? I have some from the late 70's-early 80's I'd like to unload. Mostly Redskins are what I buy. I'll look at my list this weekend and let you know what, if anything, I need from those years. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchoolTerry Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Thanks. Off the top of my head, I have Riggins and Theismann from '79, and probably not much else. I'm sure I have a few other no-names as well, if you need those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_Levine Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 What Disney cels do you have, Ian? Are they movies or short films? Or both? I'd love to hear about some of the "big ones"!

I'm sure I have a few other no-names as well, if you need those. I think I do need the Riggins (maybe Theismann to), but the no names are the ones that can be hard to find so I may need many of them. Anyway, I'll get you a list soon. I'm in a training this week at work so no free time until this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenAge-migration Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 You know... If we pooled all out efforts together and instead of collecting, spending, hoarding we work together to give to charity, then the world would be a much better place. We could work a lot of magic. By the way I also collect Gi Joes, Transformers, Hero Clix, and original art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lighthouse Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 What do I collect... geez... what don't I collect... [*] Lighthouses (specifically the Spencer Collin ones, which are currently plummetting in value. I am picking up pieces for $15 that used to cost me $140 and I am not the least bit bothered by it. Have around 60 of them.) [*] Pewter figurines of wizards (around 80 of them) [*] Magic: The Gathering cards (I have sold off my collection several times, including the sale that funded my first store. I let four complete sets of Power 9 and over 800 Dual Lands go in that sale. But I still have several binders of stuff.) [*] Sports Cards, mostly hockey (probably 125,000 cards total, plus a couple sealed wax cases and vending cases of OPC) [*] Ramon Martinez baseball cards (for some unknown reason in college he became my 2nd favorite player behind Nolan Ryan, and I have pretty much every card he was ever on. Watched his brother Pedro pitch in the minors several times and frankly didn't think he was that good... ) [*] First edition novels (mostly Asimov and Ian Fleming, but I would like to add more Hemingway and Heinlein to my collection) [*] Piers Anthony (everything he has ever written, including his porn book. A lot of his fantasy is [!@#%^&^], but Bio Of A Space Tyrant changed my life) [*] Porn (yeah, I think I might have mentioned this before) [*] Misty Mundae DVDs (almost counts as porn but she's going more regular B-movie at this point) [*] Wine (just donated a few cases to a charity auction, but still have too many bottles) [*] Programs (but only if I attended the event. Still have five from the night of Andy Moog's 300th win) [*] Every ticket stub from every concert I have attended [*] I have around 800 CDs, but the only ones I would count as a collection are the Chris LeDoux, most of which are OOP [*] Spouse Points (my most important collection of all. The number I have is always changing, but I always make sure I have at least some... I better...) I'm sure there are more things I collect. But if I don't go sell some comics now I won't be able to collect anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokinghawk Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I collect racist Native American "Americana" items--comics, figuringes, postcards, souveniers. This is used for youth education in our tribal cultural center. I also collect memorabilia related to the original gothic band, Bauhaus. A personal favorite.

goldust40 Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I also collect memorabilia related to the original gothic band, Bauhaus. A personal favorite. Saw 'em a few times, a long time ago during the post-punk era. They were good. Do you like the Sisters Of Mercy? For a while a collected their stuff.

If we ever meet at a show, I will tell you a very long story concerning a guy I used to share a house with, a guitarist with the SOM who had a broken instrument and the world's first folk-metal band - Barbed Wire and the Metal Minstrels.

shiverbones Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 bauhaus is an all time favorite band, but i didn't get to see them until the reunion a couple years ago. I still have some tough vinyl of theirs like the dark entries 12" Really liked sisters of mercy a lot too, but prefer the earliest things up to maybe reptile house EP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to sell a few to fund the purchasing of my last 34 DC comics. Anyone wanna buy a few ? It might pay for my Detective 27. Or the Double Action 2 that's curently driving me round in circles.

chrisco37 Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 I know those pieces are out of my price range, Ian. Have you ever thought of putting some pieces up for auction? Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilleycs Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 I've thought about collecting old monster movies and hard-to-find horror movies. I used to love those things! I'll get around to it sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
