Besides cigars what do you collect?

I used to collect baseball cards-stopped in the late 80's as there got to be too many sets. Now I collect a few first edition books. And I have a bunch of cigar bands


So, you like the civil war. I enjoy reading about that period. My cousin wrote a book about the young kids in the war. Too Young to Die. He is a huge CW buff-does the re-enactments and all.

I am in the process of completing my first book. Awaiting responses from publishers.

Star Wars and records. Still buying up Star Wars stuff, but I stopped buying records when I stopped DJing.

Watches - mostly mechanical automatic Japanese watches, but I have a couple Swiss ones too. Haven't had the funds to buy a new watch in 5 years though.
Cameras - 35mm film cameras from the 30's - 80's, rangefinders and SLRs, mostly a Nikon and Retina ho. Can't swing Leica collecting yet.
Anything related to WWII - History nut and reenactor, so I have a lot of stuff related to this.
My wife might try to claim I collect fishing rods/reels/lures, but I certainly don't think of those things as "collecting". It's just stuff you have to buy to use for what you like to do (kinda like cigars!).

Me, too, but all kinds and from about the turn of the last century. Have about 400. One of the benefits of living in Rochester, NY (home to Eastman Kodak) is that they are everywhere.

Also:

Military bring-back firearms
US stamps 1900-2000
Military uniforms
27th Division memorabilia/militaria

My wife says I collect collections.

hmmmm

I collect folding lockblades
Flashlights
Movies (Somewhere around 500 DVD's now doing bluray)
Watches


I think thats about it

I would say music but I don't know that I collect it I just love music of all kinds so I have around 1,000 albums/CD/MP3 however we measure it these days...around 12,000 songs

Pint glasses. I have pint glasses with all kinds of logo from beers to sports to local bars.

Does debt count?
