[ a non-commercial project ]

Many of us are collectors in one or the other way, I have collected vinyl recordings for about 20 years like a maniac. Today with the advantage of an old chap I manage to think first, select well and eventually grab the item then, if the price is pleasant. Not to become excited each time you come across a so called 'collector's item' is a real ease, and if you experienced it once you won't miss it anymore. During these years of 'hunting' rare recordings I have been to many second hand shops and flea markets. Oh, how many dreadful items I had to touch to obtain the ones of interest. How many discussions about the condition of the records and the prices. But it was always a chance to meet nice and interesting people from various nations and gave me the opportunity to have many conversations.
Partial we had to gesticulate wild, because of language problems. As a result of all these efforts my record collection became fairly big with a number of different styles in the end.
At that time all that did to me a lot of fun and,

I still remember it well, even now after quite a lot of years. The matter is, I came across many different items beyond the vinyl which seemed to be collectible as well. From time to time I couldn't resist and so I bought some more or less strange things that touched my heart in some special way. One of these wonderful pieces is the one on the right beside this article. For quite a long time I didn't realise what I have bought over all these years. Some of the objects were hidden in some boxes or behind some other things in a vitrine. Some people encouraged me to show the things on my site in the web beneath the recordings, because they are valuable and nice to behold after such a long time. Well I agreed and that is the start, it will be interesting hopefully.
