I collect sports memorabilia. And I used to collect Mustangs. I had 5 at one time, but since I moved and dont have the room anymore, I only have one left (1967). I used to also collect oil & gas station memorabilia when i had a barn/garage. But now that Im in a condo, I dont have room for any of that anymore either. Heres some of the sports memorabilia (room was a mess when i took these photos). This is actually only about half of it:

That garage is fantastic. How were you able to downsize?
 
That is a beautiful car.

EDIT: What color is that?
 
Monopoly games
 
Did you sell all of the gas station stuff RS?

Someone gave me the NYC version as a gift. I never opened it. It just wouldn't be the same to play in some place other than Atlantic City.

well, i pretty much sold everything off piece by piece before i moved (into the condo). i just couldnt afford to live out on the lake anymore. the property taxes ($11,000/year) were killing me, plus all the maintenence of the property (2 acres) was more than i could handle. I sold a couple cars on Ebay, one via word of mouth, and then a collector came down with a U-Haul truck and bought practically all of my gas & oil memorabilia. he owned a classic car showroom and museum and wanted a lot of the stuff i had which included gas pumps, traffic signals, oil pumps, old restored (and some unrestored) soda machines, PAM (Light-Up) clocks (like Quaker State Oil, Texaco, Pepsi, etc), etc etc etc... just stuff i had from years and years of collecting. i had enough of that lifestyle (lakehouse, woods, property) and wanted to move back over to Pinellas county & downsize. too much stuff....
