That's for damn sure!

Im into collecting beer tap handles. i think im up to about 50 now, i dont remember exactly as they have been in storage since we moved into the apartment and i no longer have room to put them out. That will change as soon as our house is done and i get my man cave back.

Dust.

Aside from that, Not much.
Use to collect sports cards and autographs but years ago.

Baseball autographs and memorabilia and civil war books and civil war relics. Have mostly focused on my civil war collection but still occasionally pick up some autographs.

I've got tons of American stamps and related postal items - plus some old US money. Got a good collection of foreign money friends and family have been bringing me from their travels over the years. Like Brad said, I try not to go too crazy (i.e. Mac) or I'd have too much chit and nowhere to put it. One thing I would love to collect is fishing lures. I've dodged that fantasy because I know if I ever start, it'll be my demise. I just love a well-made, old fishing lure.
