<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Snowman Cometh, post: 9568204, member: 83302&quot;]I buy stuff. Lots of stuff. I&#039;d like to say it&#039;s all good. But, it&#039;s not. I&#039;m over packed.</p><p><br /></p><p>I love art and beautiful things. We collect old things, especially old German things, like smokers, wooden items. We have 7 Christmas trees at Christmas filled with many old ornaments. Oh, and Disney. We&#039;ve vacationed there a lot. We have tons of Disney. I pride myself on a wonderful Figment collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>My #1 is autograph collecting. I never planned on it. I&#039;ve met a lot of celebrities and their autographs are in a box in my basement. A decade ago I saw Fritz Lang&#039;s Die Neibulugen and it was FABULOUS. I saw a Ross Verlag card with the two leads autographs and bought it.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]459334[/ATTACH]</p><p>Lang&#039;s Metropolis is considered one of the greatest silent films ever made. So, I got the bright idea to collect all the main principals of the movie. It took years. But, I got them all. Erwin Biswanger was a lead, and IMPOSSIBLE to find. You can only find screenshots of him from Metropolis online, and ebay has one Ross card from Die Nibelungen that you can&#039;t even recognize him. Try finding a bio on him. I think IMDB made up the date of his death. He&#039;s a ghost. Finally a few years ago on ebay in Germany someone put up a sketch he did of an actress, it&#039;s signed Biswanger. I WON.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]459335[/ATTACH]</p><p>I added more and more. A few days ago at auction ($5) this letter was part of a book lot, it includes the envelope. I got a great bargain. There were 3 autographed books in the lot. All for $5. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]459337[/ATTACH]</p><p>I buy a lot... Too much...</p><p><br /></p><p>The stories I can share...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
