I collect many things but matchbox labels and related items hold my strongest interest. Having been involved in the hobby for more than fifty years I find myself particularly interested in the weird and wonderful and in this respect phillumeny doesn\u2019t disappoint, I still find things that I would never even have imagined could exist. <\/p>\n

Over the years I\u2019ve amassed collections from an eclectic range of subjects including postage stamps, revenue stamps, fiscal documents, embossed crests and monograms, post cards, cigarette cards, beer mats, dice, coins, bank notes, bullets, Magazine of Art Annuals, Majolica<\/a> green leaf plates, Portmeirion Totem ware<\/a>, Irish wade ceramics, Holkham Pottery mugs<\/a>, custard cups, bottles, fossils, rocks and crystals, shells, exotic seed heads, taxidermy, carved ebony elephants, Japanese lacquer ware, plus many sundry items that draw my attention but are insufficient in number to be described as collections.<\/p>\n

Top of the list as my main and most extensive collectable interest is matchbox labels and other match related items especially the obscure and unusual.<\/p>\n
