I forgot a couple of things in my post above, I also have a beer bottle (modern) collection, lighters, old tobacco stuff, roman coins, 1 oz silver rounds, carnival glass (not actively at this time but I still have a lot), guns (military issue stuff), stamps, pop tops (yes I'm serious, I'm gonna cash 'em in one day and make a mint...or, because my concience won't allow it, turn them into the ronald mcdonald house foundation), military pay currency, thimbles, hot wheels cars (I have over 800 of them now), insulators (nothing rare, all personal finds), date nails from rail roads (havesn't seen these for a while, can't remember what box I put them in), coca-cola advertising - (mostly WW2 vintage), anything having to do with point beer, old beer steins (only old ones), indian pottery, both whole, and fragments for research purposes, national geographics (this is by far my heaviest collection!!! - even beats my rock collection, old toy rail road engines (I have six of them from the 1940s!!), old wood boxes with advertising on them (I am currently selling off this collection though), old beer cans (favorite is treaty abuse beer), miniture antique oil lamps, autographs (no longer actively seeking, too many fakes),

It's everywhere- desk, boxes, office, safes, basement, closets, gun cabinets, some at my parents, bottles in windows of house and garage, huge bookcase filled with antique books and indian ceramics, display cases on the walls with artifacts and old newspapers, I have it spread out. When ever somebody that collects something comes over I say "oh really? Me to! Follow me!" Collectors have a tendancy to get "stuck" at my house for hours.
