Default Why we collect what we collect

For me, collecting is very personal and goes way beyond just collecting what I like. My collection mainly consists of:

Hank Aaron: favorite player. Growing up in ATL, he was AND is "the man".
Reggie Jackson: other favorite player. Started collecting in 1974. Reggie
epitomized the mid-late 70's (see 5 WS rings in 7 yrs).
Topps sets: 1974-1981. Sets I collected as a child/early teen.
1965 Topps: birth year
1952 Topps: collecting low-mid grade (very slowly). Always seemed like the
ultimate set.

I know we all collect for different reasons. I look forward to reading other responses and reflections.
