This is the meeting
that everyone waits for every year!
We get to hear about all the different items and special hobbies
that people have and enjoy besides numismatics or exonumia material. Just to be able to learn about other
collectibles that people have enjoyed throughout their life time. It’s amazing at some of the items that
people do collect. We have had an
array of different items throughout the years. Pottery, Dolls, Trains, Comic Books,
Lego’s, McDonald’s Happy Meal Toys, Baseball Hats, Hawaiian Shirts,
Figurines, Decanters, Hummel’s, Precious Moments, Pep Pins, games and
many other miscellaneous items.
So, don’t be afraid to
bring in some off the wall collectible or something out of the norm. It would be fun if everyone got
involved and we could have a vote to see what was the most interesting or
most unknown in collecting. Come
on out and sit and chat with friends and share your stories. Hope to see you all at the next
meeting.
Guests are
welcome!
Especially
Youths!
