Collections: Do you have any?  

i currently collect old Bibles and antique books. i love books as i have been a writer for several years. i love old stuff too because it is interesting to think of what hands (and what the people were like) that owned the books. i also very much like history!
i used to collect antique glasswear and other old odds and ends.

hi cindy, I have a different collection. i use to collect empty refils of the ballpens i use. I dont know why iam doing it . But i have now more than 500 of them . i just started this almost 5years ago

I think this is a good topic,it's nice to share things with other people. I love collecting horses,their my favorite animal and I had tons of them at one time,then i had to move, so gave them away to people I know and who i knew would enjoy them, i have different sizes and colors of them, glass ones,plastic and so on.My favorite horse i'd have to say is the Arabian though,their beautiful and powerful, free and wild.I also collect unicorns,their horses as well but with horns.

I love collecting pencils and souvenir spoons, and am just now starting to collect rocks for some odd reason. Little figurines are also some of my favorite collectibles, and don't even ask me about the number of stuffed animals or books I have, because I honestly couldn't tell you. :)

I've been collecting those reshaped ovalish pennies from souveneir shops.. the ones from the machines where you put like two quarters and a penny in and the penny comes back out flat with a new design.. ie: my golden gate bridge one. Also I love earrings, and other jewellery in general. I like really fun earrings. Also, some old stickers I really like. I have a few charms too, but not much else I suppose.

I have collection of different varieties. First thing is Old Gramaphone Records which presently I am not persuing any more for the want of time and efforts require to get them!

My second collection pertains to ballpoint Pens. I have collected more than 2000 ball point pens without any duplicates and for this I have been awarded a Certificate from our National Book of Records by name Limca Book of Records.I am also having my name mentioned in that book. Again because of want of time and managing the whole collection isnot that easy, I have more or less stopped adding further to my existing collection, which presently I have packed and stored in the store room!!

Third one is interesting one and I like this hobby verymuch and likely to continue with it! This is collection of One Rupee Coins. I have got One rupee coins from various countries where the currency is one rupee and I have tried to collect One rupee coins from India since the first coin came into existance. Thus I have pre independant One rupee coins and post independant one rupeee coins in my Collection. I have got the first One Rupee Coin issued by King Sher Shah Suri in 1548 AH, before that there was concept of One rupee. Then after that I got One rupee coins from Princely states then, Mughul period, British Ruled territories and by East India Company. All these coins are Silver ones!

Post Independant coins are not of Silver but are with different designs from different mints.ighlight of my Coin collection is that I have got Coins of one rupee with mint errors.

For this collecion of mine which is largest in the Company The Limca Book Of Records entered my name in their Book and awarded me with Certificate !

I am really proud of my One Rupee coin Collecion which I have systematically preserved in a Album after packing each coin in coin holder along with all the details and a piece of history whenever I could manage to add !

Thanks for initiating such a nice topic of discussion I liked it! happy Mylotting!

hi iamcdy I collect beanie babies. I started out with five I had found and started buying them so now I have about sixty all different from pigs to chickens to horse to a crab, and a dolphin. I just enjoy looking at them and getting new and different ones. I even have a dodo bird lol.

Hi iamcdy. I collect bells and clowns. I have more bells than I do clowns tho. My kids used to give me either a bell or a clown every Christmas. They kinda quit doing that tho. I'm running out of room in my cabinets. I keep them in some closed in cabinets with glass doors. When ever I travel anywhere or go somewhere special, I look for a bell. I like the ones that are unique and that don't look like just an ordinary bell if I can find any. I also like ones that have the name of the place on them. I put the date and who gave it to me on the inside of the bells.

It's always interesting to read those collection topics because people collect SOOO dirrerent and funny things :D I collect candy papers by the way, when i was smaller i used to collect bottle caps also :P

I have a passion for teddy bears, I have a hugh collection of them. I have so many things in the shape of teddy bears, I have a paper towel holder shaped like a bear, salt an pepper shakers, dish towels, I have an ottoman shaped like a black bear and many many more things. If you were to come to my house you would be able to tell what I collect and what my husband collects.
My husband collects trains, he loves model railroading, and has built a mini lay out in our dining room.
