Why Do You Collect?

Post by celebrityfan »

For a presentation at school, I need to include why people collect autographs...at the moment I've got three reasons.

1. To look forward to getting mail.
2. To have a claim to fame
3. To have something to do with their spare time.

I would like to know what your reasons for collecting are, and would you mind keeping them short like above as the people in my class get bored easily! :mrgreen: Thanks in advance! :D

I just love movies and media, and it's a fun way to pass the time.

And coming home every day and zipping to the mailbox is a definite thrill...;)

Thrill and often a disapiontment, but there are those days!!!!!it's not all about the autograph knowing that you have the ability to contact someone who is admired by thousands is pretty cool

I collect so in the future I have something to remember my younger days with, to show future generations I suppose, of the people I idolised growing up :?

My main reason was boredom :P Also cos I never thought I'd get anything back and it would be a bit of fun...me and my friend sent one to the woman who plays Sonia from Eastenders cos shes a bit of an in-joke...never did get anything back :cry:

I collect because I love how my house looks with all these celebrities, and I know they enjoy the letters, when they read them. My friends love my collection and I love showing it off.
