I've been involved with a lot of different hobbies over the years. Some more than others. I think of those as dormant collecting interests, that might revive if something nice cam my way affordably.

Currently my non trading card interests are Stamps US, German, and especially
the official stamps of the US from 1873 into the 1880's. B
Bicycles, especially team used aero bikes from the 80's until just before 2000 when the crazy stuff was all banned. Plus any associated stuff like the helmets etc.

Like you Steve, I've collected a lot of different things as items came my way. I've collected Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars. Aside from the sports cards, I've collected a lot of non-sports cards. I picked up multiple British tobacco sets mostly from the 1930's and 1940's.

My other main collection at the moment is music. Both the physical media (CDs and records) and vintage equipment. I have several 1970's receivers and turntables. These take up too much room and will probably have to be reduced to just one set to listen to. I've posted one example.

What I'd like to see is some of your turntables! I'm a great fan of 1970's Gerrard, Dual and Thorens turntables.

I'm pretty much the Anglophile who's never been to the U.K. I specialize in late-70s U.K. punk, post-punk, darkwave, Goth, new wave, indiepop, shoegaze. I also really dig late-50s rock, early 60s girl groups, mid-60s psychedelic pop and late-60s jangle/sunshine pop. I typically only collect 7" singles/45s. My collection...

A 1204!? I can't even find specs on that one quickly.

I looked hard at getting a Dual 1219 in the very early 1970's but in the end opted for a Gerrard SL95B with a Shure M91ED cartridge.

Incidentally, are you aware of Doctor Dual?

Doctor Dual

Actually it's a Dual 1264. Picked it up at Goodwill believe or not. It came with the user manual and all the other paper work. They said it came in the box, but they threw away the box!
