Autographs
Well,
almost everybody does. We, for example, have never collected autographs, but we have carefully preserved letters from Fred Allen, Roy Rogers, and Jim Tully, who was hailed as a great American novelist during the 1920's.

Photographs
Styles change in clothing, hair-dos, jewelry, rugs, furniture, automobiles, and in

Playing Cards

Some shells are as simple and utilitarian as a one-room apartment; some are many-chambered architectural wonders of immense complexity and elegance; some are so tiny as to be
almost invisible; some are huge and too heavy for a man to lift without help.
