Aside From Coins, Do You Have Any Other Hobbies?

Nice collection.

 

Lots of care

 

You are so correct. My mistake.

 

Thanks. Here are most of the rest of them. We did put one of them to its original use when our children were baptized. The priest used one of the Marius Hammer baptismal spoons.

 

Nice, my late grandmother collected silver spoons from her various trips. They all had different scenes on them & were of various sizes. Some were really nice. Sadly they were sold to help pay for her Alzheimers meds. Stupid pharmaceuticals.

 

Fossils, Pickelhauben, trains, Indian Artifacts

 

I enjoy collecting old time radio, from the original transcriptions. I recently acquired another bucket list rarity, a complete Lord Haw-Haw, who was crowing about the victory at Dunkirk, which is about as common as an Avitus AE4. I used to have a copy of the War of the Worlds (there are surprisingly many bouncing around), but I traded it long ago. I have two copies of Roosevelt's Pearl Harbor speech, one a complete c. 1950 copydisc, and the other a bona fide original, but it's only 15 minutes of it.

My main specialty's mystery shows, but I also specialize in unusual and demented OTR recordings. A friend turned me onto Jim Hawthorne, the original Weird Al.

 

Photography. I live in Japan, so I'm lucky enough to have this nearby to take photos of on occasion:

 

I collect license plates. I concentrate on 1776-1976 plates (both official license plates as well as "booster" plates, and any plates featuring the US flag.

 

I collect LEGO as well and for the most part that's it, but I also have some Black Series figurines and a helmet. This isn't all I've got by any metric, but I don't have photos of many of my other sets. I do have another thread with more of my LEGO. The ship is my Z95 from 2012 which I dropped and the brittle red piece broke. LEGO won't send me a new one so I replaced it with a piece from my V-Wing that's been in pieces for years.

 

Tube amplifiers and to a lesser degree old radios.

 

so how do we post pictures?

 

I collect Radio Shows from the 40's. My favorite is "Johnny Dollar". I also enjoy the radio version of "Gunsmoke". I could go on, but you get the idea. I listen to them in my truck. I collect movies. I love the new 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD versions in my theater. The screen is 10' wide x 7' tall. I get a kick out of series, especially "Quantum Leap".

 

I remember the radio version: Mr Dillion! Mr Dilllion! called Fester, Ms Kitty.
James Arness.

 

The Australian version of Gunsmoke is of the greatest rarity.

William Conrad was the U.S. Matt Dillon.

 

Comic albums, comic books, graphic novels, and original drawings by my favourite authors.

 

Pretty neat!

 

Thats awesome. I collect comics too. As for art, do you get it from Kirbys Comic Art? So many I would love to own but most sell fast or too rich for my income.
