I must say, in NY last week there was a wonderful little oddity at a cool place called the Knitting Factory--it was "Collector's Night", so any and all collectors came with their extensive and strange collections. There were prizes and some weird things, like one woman had 17,000 beanie babies and one guy had like 300 vintage paint brushes. Makes me think your family could have won some cash money prizes! SO awesome.
