I have well over 3,000 of the stupid things. Of course I have 12 Whitman Classic Albums of them and almost all full but then there are the numerous plastic rolls of the things and many in 2x2's. Then there are about 30 to 40 rolls of 1943 Lincoln Cents from when I was a kid. That is hoarding but it reminds me of when I was a kid and that was a long, long timea ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
