Has Anyone Recently Completed a Collection?
Has anyone recently completed, or is close to completing, a
collection? I collect small plastic NFL football helmets (from gumball machines), and I need two more to complete my collection. I'm getting pretty anxious - every trip to the store brings at least a few tries at obtaining those elusive last two helmets. In the spirit of full disclosure, I'm also a university professor who writes frequently on why people collect. I'd greatly appreciate your responses, either to the group or offline at , to these questions: Take me through what you were thinking when you completed the collection. Walk me through the pursuit of that final item. Did you reflect at all on the act of collecting? What did you conclude? What's next? Another type of item? Another collection? Will you stop collecting for now? If so, why? Again, I'm indebted to those who respond. I do intend to write about what I learn - your identity will be protected. Thanks again. |
