Would Cashmere or angora lint work?

Mechanical things intrigue me and I have picked up a couple of early electric sewing machines. 1 of them is an Edison and the other is the first Singer Model that had an electric motor. The Edison appears to precede the Singer by a good 20 years.

I started picking up the odd old department store catalogue, mainly Eaton's and Simpson's. They were two chain stores that ruled the market here in Canada for a loooong time.

Both gone now, of course.

I used them to date and price my old radio collection but they have taken on somewhat of a life of their own as collectibles for me now.

I am having a hard time in choosing between "Etc." and "other".

Definitely into older mechanical watches... I also look for older science textbooks (of any level), and for some reason, vintage suitcases. Well, they do come in handy for carrying vintage electronics when fitted with foam...

Hmmmm...does a 1961 Samsonite qualify as vintage

This comes out when the snow starts to fly

Antique Slot Car collecting and racing. It's gotten to be the expensive hobby compared to my audio hobby. It helps keep me young!

Vintage cars and old radios

 

[MarkGoodOne]

Hate cars and payments, so bought a 1997 Saturn new. Changed oil every 1,000 miles, every mechanic I go to wants to but it. But buying a new one soon only for ease of entry/exit. Will hate writing that check.

Only newer thing I like is my live-in female the past 4 years.

She's 26, I'm 55. Better performance and specs than a vintage model with fewer vintage type problems.

I love vintage automobiles, but cannot afford them. I like vintage books, coins, stamps, movies, TV shows and old computers.

I don't collect anyting, but next to audio I'm into house renovation.. More than I want to.. that's what you get when you want the 'style' and history an old house has..

You collect Curtas, I have a large collection of vintage electronic calculators from '67 through the '70's. All display types represented... nixies, LED, fluorescent (itrons, box-8 tubes, panels), neon, and early LCD (reflection numerals). Probably number, in total, about 200 unique examples from most manufacturers.
