What do you collect as a hobby?

*how soon before someone derails it with such one liners as 'chopped heads of chicken'*

No seriously....go forth and showcase your collection too. As a kid, I used to collect stamps, coins, currency, Indrajal comics...

Recently I realize that a good hobby is a great substitution for addiction.

It can by anything. List away. Post photos. Do you travel? Visa stamps? Nigerian wooden statue? Anything.

I use to do that too. What is your best/most precious collection to date?

Mine is/was Bhutan's GOLD round stamps. More like gala seals. After liberation Bhutan's king came to BD. An uncle had connections. I still have them but all in the attic.

crikss · #19 August 19, 2011, 09:41 AM

Stamps....Comics (C.Chowdhury, Billu, Pinki and lot's of) then wwe wrestler Stickers

Navo · #20 August 19, 2011, 02:46 PM

Postcards - I only started collecting in 2008 but I have about 250 or so now. My favorite one was sent by a Pakistani friend and it has a photo of a lone gunman prowling the Khyber Pass on it! The ones I have from Kazakhstan and Mali are a close second.

Miniature National Flags - I have a hiking bag on which I like to sew the miniature flags of countries I have visited.

For a while I considered collecting unused airplane airsickness bags because I thought it would be a relatively unusual hobby, but after collecting a few, better sense (and my friends) intervened.
