<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lrbguy, post: 2842232, member: 88829&quot;]Like so many I have too many collecting hobbies.&nbsp; My main hobby, even ahead of Roman coins, is collecting the US postage stamp series known as the Bank Note Issues 1870-1893: essays, proofs, and experimentals.&nbsp; Here is a composite I did for another list showing some of that kind of material in my collection:</p><p><img src="https://www.stampcommunity.org/uploaded/essayk/20160106_exper-composite-sm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>That also got me into collecting obsolete U.S. currency up to 1860.&nbsp; From there I branched into Bible pages from the 12th to the 18th centuries.&nbsp; I already had an antiquities collection for Mesopotamia, Magna Graeca, and the Holyland, which I stopped building when the National Museum in Baghdad was ransacked.&nbsp; My one concession to modernity is a collection of Lord of the Rings movie posters signed by members of the cast and crew (I have some extras of those), signed memorabilia, and authorized replicas of the weaponry used in the series.&nbsp; Adjunct to all that is photography (since early 1970s) and videography (since 2006).&nbsp; Never a dull moment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
