[QUOTE="kirispupis, post: 7808090, member: 118780"]That's a pretty cool frog! I never realized people collected them, but I used to collect antique firecracker packs (sold them to fund my coins), so I can relate. Years ago my father's aunt passed away and the family asked if he wanted anything from her. His fondest memory of going to her house was she would take a cookie from a jar and give it to him, and she made the most delicious cookies. So, he asked if he could have the cookie jar. They wrapped it up and sent it to him, and then he placed it in his display cabinet. A month later one of my mother's friends is over and her eyes pop. It turns out she collected antique cookie jars and that one was super rare. Of course my father has no desire to sell it, because the value for him is in the good memories.[/QUOTE]
