Collectors will collect ANYTHING. The guy who runs the Auto Repair Shop 
I take my car to collects womens panties and pantaloons. Earliest in his 
collection is 1850. Latest is 1966. Even has 'Fan-Dance' costumes from 
the 1900-1940's! His pride and joy are several authentic Stripper 
outfits purchased from Mary Goodneighbor who used them in Scollay Square 
back in the early 50's

He also has a very, very understanding wife.

Some people are like a Slinky .. not really good for anything,
but you still can’t help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.
