What do you collect (besides guns)?

[LHS]

Probably done before, but I was just wondering what other people collect, besides guns.

I collect screwdrivers, Keen Kutter items (an old brand name), and area milk bottles.

Chinese art, especially carved stone. Each of the two pieces shown below were carved from one solid piece of agate. The artist saw the image in the solid block of stone and simply removed everything else.

H Richard; Looks like a Retina 2A in the middle of the top photo. I took one to RVN in the pocket of my fatigues: took almost 100 rolls of film with it. The one on the top right looks like my father's Voightlander Avus, which he bought long before I was born. It still works, and I have a 120 roll film adapter for it. Also a plate holder if I can find some glass plates for it.

Old pocket watches. None are very valuable, but I like them. The one I carry only varies about+/- 5 seconds a week. Doesn't need batteries either.

 

[BarbC]

Old glass.

Aches and pains, as I get older I seem to be increasing my collection quite a bit! The fruit of living hard when young, of course I would do it all again.
