What else do you collect?, by Deleted on May 2, 2017 2:12:29 GMT 1, My collection of Turkish Tophane pottery (red & black stuff on the left), a bit of Roman sigillata ware (top right) and some wonderful Greek pottery from the geometric period (top centre), and some broken bit's!!!
This is an old photo from 2015, most of the Tophane pottery I sold but kept a few of the nice pieces for myself, got rid of all the broken bit's but still cannot bear to part with the Roman and Greek pottery as I love it too much although I have constant panic attack's thinking that the shelves are going to just fall down for no apparent reason and to add to this I have three hyperactive lad's running around the house aaarrrgghh the worry:D

What else do you collect?, by Deleted on May 4, 2017 9:42:31 GMT 1, What's your best find? I remember going in a record shop and going through a bargain bin full of Italo House for £1 each. Pulled out about 25 12" cheapest of which was worth about £15. One record Twin peaks Killer was worth about £100 and there was a few worth £50+ Became a real anorak and could identify a lot of Hardcore white labels by the catalogue number etched on record. Bought a few £100+ dance records. Sadly don't collect records anymore.

What else do you collect?, by karibo on May 6, 2017 13:18:56 GMT 1, Hi karibo Here's a Few snaps of the some of the pot's I kept, please excuse the dust I find it fascinating to think about who originally owned and handled these pot's as well as the journey each pot has made in it's life considering they are over 2000 years old, if only they could talk they would have quite a story to tell. (not the Tophane ware, they are only 19th Century) cjp, you're so right about the stories that could told by the people that used and handled these items. The stories are lost by imprints remain. The bravery in the simplicity of colour, designs and texture is impressive.

What else do you collect?, by The True Cubs Fan on May 12, 2017 4:37:15 GMT 1, Probably not unique, but original printings/books/articles from authors I love. Love philosophy, so I've been on a hunt for original pamphlets and printings in magazines of some philosophers. Awesome to collect because there really isn't a market for them, so I haven't paid more than $40 for some 100+ year old printings.

Outside of urban art, I collect:

What else do you collect?, by 2soonjr on Jun 15, 2017 23:05:21 GMT 1, Hip hop cassettes. I collect classic albums and ones I just like listening to in general. I mounted some of them in cheap frames and hang a group of them on a wall and switch them out whenever I want to get different ones up there. They're a real conversation piece when I have guests over!
Current group of some heavy hitters in chronological order:

Of course! It's a double album though so that's tape 1 & 2 in the frame, figured I'd keep them together. Have to do that when BIG's "Life After Death" gets rotated in too.

Nice idea, I used to have a huge hip hop tape collection. In the end I gave away all of the tapes and framed up all the sleeves (I still have some that didn't fit).

Didn't work out that well with the art though......
