A full run of the Avengers? A complete set of Mego superhero dolls? A Revenge of Jedi poster?

What are some of the nicest pieces in your collection?

All of the above pales in comparison to the comic book spinner rack:

None of the major titles (I'm workin' on 'em, though), but complete sets of a lot of smaller titles (Marvel Two-In-One, West Caost Avengers, Rom, that sort of stuff). Not much Beatles memoribilia (compared to other Beatles fans), but probably close to a thousand Beatles CDs.

Having seen that, I can confirm that it is VERY cool! I also dig your minor-league baseball collection.

Nothing really impressive to anyone but me personally. I'm quite pleased with my Spider-Man and FF Omnibuses, the Watchmen and New Frontier Absolutes...stuff like that. But nothing that would make a collector say "wow".

Sorry. Like I said above, I really don't have much in the way of Beatles memoribilia, and the vast majority of the CDs are kept in large CD wallets. I've got the Box Of Vision to hold the new stereo remasters, and I'll keep the mono remasters in the box they came in. Otherwise, everything else is in one of the 4 wallets.
