All those picture of the machines with the lids open remind me of a used car lot! :lol:
I have machines, but no decent space to display them as nice as everyone's picture.

I really enjoyed following this topic, as I do not get out much any longer. As such, I hope the members do not mind us sharing a few other photos with you of areas that are easy to get to.
I am truly humbled by seeing the items in other folks' collection.

Thank you.

I've been away from the forum for a few weeks.
The start of the new school year has kept me more busy than i would like.
I greatly enjoyed the beautiful collections that were posted.
Congratulations to all of the members that contributed.
Better late than never?

How nice to come across this thread and see all these wonderful collections. Some day soon I will try to get some pictures made of my flotsam and jetsam. And seeing some of these great displays gives me ideas about how to squeeze yet more into my condo successfully! :P

Between Steve, Brad, Hailey, and Gene, I don't know where to start. Some really great stuff and nice displays. I see some of my favorite types of machines in each collection...some I no longer own and for which I have fond memories.

Thanks to each of you for posting! It's a treat to see. :)

A really fun thread!
I echo George's sentiments.
It's so nice to be able to get a glimpse of other's collections.
We are truly blessed to be a part of this great hobby and in many ways, a part of something much bigger than ourselves.
I wish I still had a photo of my first and only machine for several years (an Edison Standard in below average condition.) I cut lawns all summer to buy it.
I played the only gold molded cylinder I owned until it just plain wore out.
:D
Blessings and good luck to all!
Gene

Boy there sure are some rare machines in these collections. Hailey has some wonderful music boxes. And I say the bigger the better. I know a good place for that Hexaphone and Modernola.
