Those belt buckles are heavy! Most of that stuff was actually acquired years ago from a lovely guy who sold us his entire FM collection. He used to be a huge fan, but over the years he decided he wanted to devote more of his time to religion, and clear out all the stuff from his crazy youth, so he asked if we'd be interested in buying his collection. To which I replied, "Alleluia!"
We picked it up in the parking lot of a music store in Edison NJ back in 1997, and I remember going home and just digging through all these treasures-- records, 45's, articles, magazines, pictures.....oh god it was better than Christmas. I think we got the mirror w/ their faces on it from him also.
Anyone wanna sell their collection LOL?
Oh one more stupid thing-- totally OT-- but today I dropped off another bag for Toys for Tots, and as i was putting it in the box, there sat the chubbiest cutest little Christmas penguin I have ever seen, w/ a cap and scarf etc....and for a horrific moment i considered grabbing him and running off with him back to my car LOL. However, I left him there, I did the right thing. (Honestly if no one was around, I might have taken it, and how could I have lived with myself after that?!) But it was so funny to see this little Fleetwood Mac penguin staring up at me from that box; I actually muttered out loud, "Oh my god, a penguin."
