Blincoe Vs Spacious Mind
Looks like at the end our friend and benefactor Blincoe met his dessert in the person of Spacious Mind. What a collection! At the very least is equal to a 5% of Blincoe one...

There is no comparison. It's like comparing a Mini to a Rolls Royce. I have a huge collection that's true. But the really rare ones are in the other corner.
I like this exercise though, with participation of others perhaps we can figure out the complete list of models per manufacturer. What's amazing is that every so often a new one turns up like these Novags from a manufacturer that hasn't produced in years.

I never compare my collection to others
each collection (big or small)has its own unique characteristics
...whether it be rare models,completeness for all models,completeness for all auxiliary items ..completeness for box manuals pieces,,etc,,,etc
I have never claimed to have the biggest or rarest or most complete collection
the only claim I have ever made is that no one on earth can say they have been collecting these babies longer then me
1977 Regards

Well said... I have always been embarrassed about sharing what I have collected because of having to face comments.. but it's crazy...why hide it.Steve B wrote:I never compare my collection to others

one thread listing your great collection(rather then 10) would have been a bit more efficient though

I know, I figured though by separating the main ones someone will step up and say hey this and this missing under so and so.. It just seems a bit more organized.Steve B wrote:Agreedspacious_mind wrote:Well said...

On the smaller manufacturers I could lump them in one I suppose.
