What do you collect? Just a quick test poll.

Dang. I be in the minority again. LOL the greater part of my collection is WWI CEF Medals, but I am all over the board in regard to Collection time frame. As long as it is Canadian. 

[Jerry B]

British & Commonwealth, pre WWI to c.1970, mostly headgear& insignia but also uniforms and ephemera, WWI medals, odds and sods.

Hitler Youth here. Guess pre-WW2 and during WW2 would count for this. I also collect Third Reich era propaganda, such as posters. 

[Libertesoe]

Collecting a wide variety of WW2 memorabilia, from Kriegsmarine to SOE......medals, caps, helmets, badges, boxes.......anything WW2 that catches my eye.

It is too late for me to do the poll?  It does not seem active anymore.

Combat helmets of the 20th century, nothing high-end; strictly garden variety.  Its a fascinating hobby which I enjoy immensely and, lucky for me, my wife is very good sport about it all.

[Osprey22]

Czechoslovak Medals/Pins/Badges related to the former Military/Czechoslovak Communist Party (KSC)/ Czechoslovak Young Pioneers  (There might also be some Chernobyl Liquidator Medals and  Order of Red Banner of Labour)

Hi Lenny, I found it.  It was in the margin on the main screen.  I thought it was in this thread.  Thank you for looking.

all things foodie from the crimea to the late 1980s, although I do have a whole heap of other militaria I sell on to fund my passion

[gumbyr13]

I collect us ww1 to current  pictures soon.

[48STARS]

I pick up just about anything I can find and learn all I can about it before I flip it to keep on going. Not much disposable income these day to collect much of anything but my keepers are usually stuff I can use. A few Jackets and guns, Pouches and bags, and all of my flashlights around the house and garage are military from VN era. Stuff like that I would buy anyway that is just more fun to have as a vintage military version.
