| Lots and lots of collected crap. |
The hobby of collecting includes seeking, locating,
acquiring, organizing, cataloging, displaying, storing,
and maintaining whatever items are of interest to
the individual collector. Some collectors are generalists,
accumulating merchandise, or stamps from all countries
of the world. Others focus on a subtopic within
their area of interest, perhaps 19th century postage
stamps, milk bottle labels from Sussex, or Mongolian
harnesses and tack.
The items collectors collect may be antique, or
simply collectible. Antiques are collectible items
at least 100 years old; collectibles are less than
antique, and may even be new. Collectors and dealers
may use the word vintage to describe older collectibles.
Most collectibles are man-made commercial items,
but some private collectors collect natural objects
such as birds' eggs, butterflies, rocks, and seashells... |
