I was cleaning out some boxes today that I haven't looked in for many, many years.

I found these PCS hats from the first 3 meets I attended !!!
1993-1994-1995 !

I also found a stack of old funeral magazines I got from a funeral home and a swap meet back in the early '90s !
So many had the professional car issues for the following year !

One even had a article by our one and only... Walt McCall !
Dated 1970 !

There was also a copy of the Toronto Star Newspaper from 1993
with a photo of me selling unicycles and juggling equipment out of my first hearse, a 1968 MM Citation Hearse.

Wow... do I ever look young ! Almost 1/2 my life ago.

I also found many other treasures that I have been keeping but none hearse related.


What a groovy day !

Here are a couple other neat things I had come across again.

The first book is a 1927-28 Automotive book and the other is a book my dad had in 1938. His name and address at the time were inside.

Both in great shape too.

Darren experts will say that there is a fine line between hoarding and collecting,thankfully they are full of,well, any idea how you plan to display them,:specool:

I was worried about being a hoarder. I thought long and hard about it.

I realized I am a COLLECTOR. I don't keep garbage, dead animals, my yard isn't a junk yard, I don't sleep in my back yard, etc.

Plus... most of the things I have I can sell to other hoarders, I mean, collectors at any time.

When you see my collection in person, you can decide then what label you would give me. I hope to show you next year when it is on display.

Thanks for being concerned and make sure you keep me in line.
Someones gotta do it.
