My COLLECTIBLES
As I have aged I have come to appreciate the history of items, advertising, etc. I enjoy the story such as the Tucker car of the late 40's. Some may view my collection as a hoarders mess but I really love the story of the items and share them with my peers and students. I decided to "catalog" some items so I can share some of the stories about them.

I love the Preston Tucker story. I always imagine if he really had a fair short where would cars be today?

I love Peanuts! I love McDonalds! This was a great gift from my wife in the early 2000's
When I was a young kid I loved ALL Looney Tunes! Great cartoons. I was also a Pepsi drinker. It is hard to believe these glasses are as old as me and are common and inexpensive. Also, something about the bottom of these glasses reminds me of my G-ma Hosier's iced tea glass.
