What do you collect?

Those are some beautiful collections.

I collect maps, have since I was 5 years old, and have a room filled with piles of em. If I ever win the lottery the first thing I will do is frame 100 or so of them.

Here’s a 1936 Region 1 map that is 6 x 4 feet.

I do have many maps & charts. And a million memories of the places I have been or never got to.
A buddy gave me a leather bound book/file of the 1st topographical maps made of US. I too want to frame some ,someday. The "Mariposa" & the "Gila" will be 1st two. They have a cool watercolor tone they used @ turn of the century....that is 1900 turn.
 
It would seem that I collect unpunched tags.

^^^Yup, me too.

Some of these collections are beautiful (agates and arrowheads).

+1 on the map collections.....I like to know where I'm at and where I can go.
 
I have been collecting antlers for nearly 40 years. Have around 500 to 600 big deer and elk sheds and quite a few dead heads form Montana, Idaho, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming and Ohio. I have only bought one antler. (payed a guy a box of 50 22 shells for an antler from a deer that I had several other sheds from.) Five to ten percent of the the antlers were given to me and the rest I found.
