I'm not a hoarder. Own about 90. But, I only collect specific people. Have multiples of many of them.

pjc. You are a collector by default! Once it gets in your head, you're hooked!

If it is in a particular area of specialization including duplicates and multiples of particular actors and actresses I have around 350 or so for The Andy Griffith Show, probably another 100 from Barney Miller, about that for Kolchak The Night Stalker, maybe 75 from Rosemary's Baby, 150 or so Gunsmoke.  Various other TV shows like Gilligan's Island, Bewitched, Murder She Wrote, assorted failed attempts at others shows in the neighborhood of 300 or so.  Probably another couple hundred of just obscure character actors I picked up because they interested me or were cheap.  Then signed books probably 50.  I used to collect historical and political figures years ago so have not looked at those in a long time so I bet at least 500.  So in all it is in the four figures but not really sure exactly.  With notebooks, file cabinets and bookshelves I sometimes have problems knowing what I do have.  I need help.

Yup,this is going the way of an older post. We need autographs anonymous. There are more here that dwarf us, not to mention some that don't have the numbers but have spent a fortune (who I know but wont mention).

Way too many to count. Thousands. I used to do dozens through the mail every week for years.

I have about a dozen large packed binders of signed cards, trading cards and photos. That's not counting the hundreds of signed balls, bats, models, books, etc.

I'm not boasting... it's really not a good thing. I need to thin the herd. I get stressed even thinking about how I am going to get rid of all this stuff.

For the past few years I have focused on quality over quantity, but as a younger collector that was not the case.
