What Do You Collect?

[Julie1983]

I love collecting things! I also collect things for my kids. I collect movies, Ninja Turtles, Ponyville, Schleich figurines, Pokemon cards and Thomas sets and trains. What collections do you or your family have? Do you put videos up of your collection? I have a video of our Schleich collection and it has gotten almost 4000 views! I like the figurines because they are so realistic and are excellent for making nature scenes with. The Schleich website actually has a photo contest coming up that I am excited about! For Ponyville I have a rollercoaster, ferris wheel, merry go round, movie theater, hot air balloon and other houses. As well as like 30 little pony figurines. It's a little girl heaven lol. I am also storing up riches in Heaven no need to quote that verse, I just wanted to chat about collections.

Nothing really at the moment. Although, I'd like to start collecting old coins, because history has always been an interest of mine.

Just a reminder about what the sticky says that
Chad posted about the lounge

Hello brothers and sisters,

Welcome to the lounge forum. The lounge is for off topic discussions, as in anything that does not fit in any other forum. However, the Lounge must remain Christ centered and the topics *should* include GOD in them.

Thank you and God bless you!

Your brother in Christ,
Chad

Everything I do is Christ centered because I am in Him and He in me! I am also going to start collecting vintage magazines from the 40's and 50's. I wasn't around until the 80's so it is fascinating the world that used to be before all this technology.

i collect old bibles and gospel material among other things in my life..my favorite one in the collection is a presby ministers manuel from 1916 ..my mother gave it to me as a gift ..i like the older material because it doesnt seem so waterd down and the launge is so Respectful of The Things Of Christ..todays writings sometimes seem a little dumbed down trying to make it easy to understand...Rev

I have some old books in my library too, RTSP. I am probably not a big collector but I do find them very interesting, especially when they have personal foot notes written in them.

Here are a couple.
The manual of Bible History by Rev. William g. Blackie printed in 1916

Fox's book of Martyrs, illustrated edition, printed in 1853

Character Sketches by George A. Lofton printed 1890 one of my favorites.

I had an antebellum Presbyterian Sunday Schooler but I gave it to a friend that goes to an old Presbyterian church. I think they put it in a show case with other historical items connected with their church.

I may have some things your interested in, RTSP give me a PM.

I am a collector by nature. Our house burned to the ground when I was young and lost most things. Nowadays I like to collect Bibles & Music. I have many vinyl Lp’s that are way outdated. My first love of course is Jesus. I also like to collect pictures of our family growing up. A thing from the past I am sure of. Great topic.

One of my favourites is Michael Angelo's Lasts supper. I admire it and was a gift from a friend, I look at it a lot and admire his work because it depicts so much.

@ Son of Thunder. I like Doncaster Rovers yet my son follows Sunderland because his grandad does. Go Stoke City. They won't be relegated this year LoL.
