Collectors--Why do we collect?
Agreed, Leon, it is in the genes,
and I liked the Carl Jung hypothesis [that collecting may go back, in terms of human evolution, to food-gathering/picking berries] referenced in the Jefferson Burdick/Met Museum video, which was illuminating. I'd heard of Burdick through T206 stamped-backs and knew he was a pioneer card-collector, but beyond that I didn't know his inspiring story. Great stuff! Thanks for this intriguing thread.
