I've been a long time follower of the Café but never joined until now.
I've been known to do a trick or two. I actually have been doing close up for about 25 years and am an avid collector as well. It seems sometimes more like I live in a museum than a house. |

Welcome Dr. Stevens,
I guess if you are a long time follower, you know the players. My house is more like an archeology dig with layers of sedimentary magic. Yours sounds much neater and more aesthetically pleasing. -Mary Mowder |

Welcome Dr Stevens,
Nice to have another collector in the Café. I think the preservation of magic apparatus is so important to the craft. What do you like to collect? Gimpy

Well Mary never assume as that sounds pretty close to the description I would give as well at least in parts of it.
Gimpy2 I collect a little of this and that. I actually have a few pieces from the Houdini era I'm pretty proud of. I do have more modern pieces that I enjoy like most collectors I have a few set a of cups, some rare Owens pieces. I actually inherited a bit stuff that has been floating around a while and has found a new home. I am currently trying to strike a deal on a piece that has been, for lack of better word, missing from a very famous show since the 1890's. in the attempt to not jinx myself I won't go into detail but my fingers are crossed. As you might be able to tell I am a bit excited about it. What type of stuff do you collect? |

Dr Stevens,
I have a small collection. I love woodworking so I like about anything wood. Have some things from Michael Baker that I love. Have most everything Ben Stone made from Delben. If its well made I like it. Gimpy
