What is up with that little turtle pipe thing? It looks like it has 4 bowls on it. I'm a newb when it comes to all the devices they have out now days.

Fuck dude do you like glass much ?
That one great collection !!!

 

[NorthofEngland]

Books.
English and European History.
I have over 500 and 5 or 6 could be sold for over £100 each.

Also
For over 5 years I had an obsession for Organised Crime books - especially Prohibition USA.
I have about 350 (one that is currently being sold on Amazon for more than £1000 - not my copy).
There are 10 to 15 that could fetch over £100 each.

I love the idea of saving seeds.
I think it may be my next serious collection
(I have at least 30 books that I have not yet read and will not buy any more until most are finished).

HAVE YOU ANY IDEA HOW MUCH OF A CARBON FOOTPRINT GLASS LEAVES?????
People in Africa are starving so you can accumulate an insane amount of pipes!

And our Grandkids will be floating round on rafts fighting a guerrilla war of survival in a post apocalyptic waterworld of hate!!!
Just so people like you can horde shit and show off!

I hope you fall on those pipes and lacerate every artery and vein in your selfish, polluting carcass!

no wish of pain or death is genuine).

[Sand4x105]

In 1974... I started to "Save" My Sports Illustrated Swim Suit Issue...
Figured one day I'd frame them and put them on a wall...
1974 through 2013 40 years of Mags in a Box doing nothing...

Anyone interested in them?

I could let them go.... if you'd really want them...

PM me..

Starting to get a collection of earth movers.

I buy and resell vintage and antique jewelry, and sometimes I find myself keeping pieces I like. I'm getting quite a collection. Here are some of them.
These are some antique Buddha, Bodhisattva pieces that nobody at the auction wanted. I got them for 15 each. They're handmade on a brass base, but the gemstones are real. There's amber, coral mother of pearl, ruby, etc. Each gemstone has a meaning. The positions of the figures, hand placement, etc, all have some meaning attached.





This is an old Victorian watch fob and locket. The locket has a lock of hair in it, and two pictures. One is a guy who looks dead to me. This was called memento mori and was common at the time. The other picture is really blurry, but appears to be three naked ladies.






Here are some bugs. The first one is from the 30's the other is Victorian, probably from 1880's. It's silver,citrine, and amethyst.


This is my daughter's vintage pendant. She took it from me.

Anybody else collect anything?

These are beautiful!

Pocket knives can for quite a bit of change, especially Marble.

Glass medicine bottles that are old.

Hot wheel cars

Glass storage containers.

Nothing expensive just something about those items do it for me.
The weird one is pill bottles.
My uncle lives with me and takes a ton of medications. I have saved almost all of them.
I just can't toss them because I feel like
there is an amazing project I could build.
It got so that My socks could not fit in my drawer so I boxed the bottles up and put them under my bed.
This collection actually worries my wife and I but she can go to hell.
Imma keep keepin'em.

Someday ill have a boat or treehouse
made from pill bottles and she can
stay on the land with all the other doubting
Thompson's.

In nature plants don't live in plastic buckets but at my house they do or they get the f**k out!

To my shame, all I seem to collect are grow lights and a huge electric bill.

 

[BarnBuster]

First edition books, world proof sets, pistols, cash in a safety deposit box

 

[420God]

Some of the watches I don't wear much of anymore.

Probably have enough to fill another case that aren't shown.

I'm surprised there aren't others with pipe collections. It is a shame they sit on the wall and nobody else can see them https://www.rollitup.org/toke-n-talk/510009-vintage-collectors-pipes.html
