Does it count that things you bought when young to use are now considered to be collectible. Didn't set out to have them as a collection. Acquired my uncle's set of wood planes, originally from our great grandfather who brought them from Germany. He knew I built furniture for fun and gave them to me when he retired. Used them for years when making various moldings. Now they have more value as a collectors item. Who knew that corn shuckers, grain grinders and manure spreaders would become collectible.
In the 50's I built model cars and collected baseball cards. Mom threw the baseball cards away but the 100's of old model cars (honestly I am going to build them someday) still sit in the storage room. 100's of car magazines from the 1950's.
