There were three shelves of these silly China bells, a lifetimes collection. I like to think someone in the family or a friend kept one for memories sake but I know better.
The photos are grainy because the light isn't great. I'm going to have to do something about the lighting to do diorama photos in there. If I wait until daytime, I can take the coverings off the windows and get slightly better shots. My daughter made those years ago. You can see them in the before and after shot. On the right side, they're different colors. I'm not sure what I'll do for window coverings yet. I don't know whether this arrangement will stay or not, but I'm happy with the dolls in boxes where they are for the most part. I brought some other dolls in, and my Sideshow and Hot Toys figures, but I don't have enough doll stands for any others. For now, the furniture will stay here, but I will have some tall shelves on the opposite side of the room, so they may move there. The vintage canisters will probably be for clothes and some diorama accessories storage.

I'm taking inventory of my Skipper collection today. Sorry for the poor quality of the snapshots, but I don't want to take the time to take and photoshop portraits of them all today.
Best viewed in original size.
Made in Germany , from 1954-1958 .
Survey of the cameras presented recently on this photostream . Early models (including the Retinette f) , second model (the camera with distance scale in 'feet' has still to be acquired ) , and the late models .

Well, here's what I'm keeping - logo bricks & quadrates. I have a blue quadrate heading my way, hence the gap.
The red bricks on the bottom-right represent other types of Bayers (7xC, 8xf, etc). I figured I'd at least keep one of each.
Most of the VHS tapes I own. This doesn't include some 50 VHSes of old game shows recorded by me or a friend.
Love the old Speedball brayer box and paint tubes. The graphics and type on this old packaging inspires me in my studio.
The ever expanding collection of Asahi Optical gear. I tried to get all my Asahi screwmount cameras in one shot, but unfortunately, there are still a couple that didn't make it.
It all started with one Spotmatic I received when I started my analog photography course.

1991 Ford GT40 coupé réplique par GT Developments
Châssis n° 100E321274
Moteur n° 321274
'Une GT40 authentique est hors de prix, mais il existe une alternative tout aussi charismatique, la GTD40. Les deux sont impossible à différencier à moins de cinq pas, encore moins à cinquante, tant la réplique GTD est fidèle, même aux yeux des plus avertis. Ce n'est pas une voiture en kit, mais un pur sang dans tous les sens du terme.' Autosport, 1989.
Dix ans après sa victoire au Mans, la GT40 était déjà considérée comme l'une des plus grandes classiques de tous les temps, générant une demande accrue pour les vraies voitures authentiques et donnant naissance à toute une industrie de répliques. Avec à peine 107 GT40 construites par Ford Advanced Vehicle à l'usine de Slough entre 1966 et 1972, il n'est pas surprenant qu'une industrie d'arrière-cour par de petits constructeurs indépendants ait prospérée pour satisfaire une demande croissante pour des répliques de la charismatique Ford victorieuse au Mans.
D'abord installé à Manchester puis à Poole dans le Dorset, GT Developments se révéla rapidement comme l'un des constructeurs majeurs de fidèles répliques de la GT40. GTD avait commencé au début des années 1980 en construisant des sous-ensembles pour les répliques de GT40 de KVA, la société de Kenneth Vincent Attwell, avant de fabriquer des voitures complètes. Ken Attwell avait été directeur de production à l'usine Ford de Swansea et avait pris des empreintes du moule de la voiture originale qu'il avait eu ensuite l'autorisation d'utiliser pour construire des répliques. Sous l'impulsion de Ray Christopher, un des directeurs de la société, GT Developments s'était plus tard lancé dans la construction de sa propre version. C'est ce lien avec la voiture originale, via KVA, qui rend la GTD supérieure à ses rivales, en plus du fait que Ray a passé un accord avec Bob Lutz, alors à la tête de Ford Europe, pour la fourniture de pièces originales.
Construite par les experts reconnus de GT Developments, cette fidèle réplique de la légendaire Ford victorieuse au Mans a été acquise au Royaume-Uni en février 2009 et immédiatement immatriculée par la FFVE. Basée sur le modèle Mk I, elle s'enorgueillit de caractéristiques améliorées qui la rendent aussi à l'aise sur route ou sur circuit. Parmi ses spécificités remarquables, une suspension ajustable à l'avant et à l'arrière, des amortisseurs réglables AVO (route/circuit), des étriers à 4 pistons HiSpec, des disques AP Racing ventilés aux quatre roues et des jantes alliage BRM (8 pouces à l'avant, 10 pouces à l'arrière) chaussées de pneus Avon. Les suspensions, freins, radiateur, pneus, échappement, etc ont coûté 16.700 â¬.
Monté en 2012, le moteur (17.850 â¬) est un Ford Boss 347 ci (5,7 litres) de compétition équipé d'une culasse en aluminium, de carburateurs compétition, d'un allumage électronique Mallory et d'un échappement céramique. Un vrai moteur de compétition avec un bloc à quatre goujons qui développe 430 ch mais peut grimper à 550 avec une préparation. Montée en même temps que le moteur, la boîte est une SADEV séquentielle à six rapports. La carrosserie a été repeinte il y a un an, tandis que les fenêtres latérales en Lexan ont été remplacées et l'intérieur regarni avec des matériaux conformes à l'origine. Tous ce travaux ont été effectués par des professionnels et toutes les factures sont fournies. Le coût total (y compris le prix d'achat) dépasse les 138.000 â¬.
La voiture est vendue avec son manuel indiquant la procédure de démarrage et les recommandations, un test au banc (enregistré en 2011) des essais de boîte sur les six rapports, la brochure de GT Developments, un rapport d'expert (indiquant une valeur de 120.000 â¬) et un dossier conséquent de restauration contenant des photos de la restauration.
Cette voiture est éligible pour des démonstrations lors de manifestations historiques comme Spa Classics, les Dix mille tours du Castellet, Le Mans Historique, etc et peut réaliser des temps au tour comparables à ceux de la GT40 originale. Cette superbe réplique de GT 40 peut être acquise pour une fraction du prix de la vraie et est vendue avec une carte grise française de collection et son contrôle technique valable jusqu'en 2017.
Visit on June 9, 2014 to Jerry's collection in Canton, Michigan, a small city that lies in the northwest corner of Wayne County. Jerry has a terrific collection of classic cars, both original and nicely restored.

This is part of my usual 'trip prep'… the crazy stuff I do as I prepare for a 'big' trip.
One of the most important trip prep is deciding what art supplies I will take…and since I was testing all my pens out last month using the smoth paper of Zeta I thought I would try them all on a rougher surface and see how they go.
I am like the green sailor pen a lot… though wish it flowed better when I use the pen at rapid speed.
I did this page on the train so it is a little rough!

taken in early 2015 . I have added a few pairs to these since. I prefer the pairs with the white stitching details.
Not as massive as others. Maybe 3 months worth of collection. I'm not as obsessed with collecting as I was before.

Q&A
Did you ever buy Prototypes online?
Nope
Will you ever buy Prototypes online?
Does it look like I need to? :P
Why did Will give you so much and me so little?
Me and Will have known each other for a while. We always talk and share ideas etc.
Do you like to brag about your prototypes?
Why brag, just post a pic to flickr and watch the people come ;)
I'd like to thank Will once more for his amazing generosity. 99.9% of these are from him.
The Rijksmuseum (Dutch pronunciation: [ËrÉi̯ksmyËzeËjÊm]; English: State Museum) is a Netherlands national museum dedicated to arts and history in Amsterdam. The museum is located at the Museum Square in the borough Amsterdam South, close to the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, and the Concertgebouw.
The Rijksmuseum was founded in The Hague in 1800 and moved to Amsterdam in 1808, where it was first located in the Royal Palace and later in the Trippenhuis. The current main building was designed by Pierre Cuypers and first opened its doors in 1885. On 13 April 2013, after a ten-year renovation which cost ⬠375 million, the main building was reopened by Queen Beatrix. In 2013 and 2014, it was the most visited museum in the Netherlands with record numbers of 2.2 million and 2.45 million visitors.
The museum has on display 8,000 objects of art and history, from their total collection of 1 million objects from the years 1200â2000, among which are some masterpieces by Rembrandt, Frans Hals, and Johannes Vermeer. The museum also has a small Asian collection which is on display in the Asian pavilion.
Building
The building of the Rijksmuseum was designed by Pierre Cuypers and opened in 1885. It consists of two squares with an atrium in each centre. In the central axis is a tunnel with the entrances at ground level and the Gallery of Honour at the first floor. The building also contains a library. The fragment building, branded Philips wing, contains building fragments that show the history of architecture in the Netherlands. The Rijksmuseum is a rijksmonument (national heritage site) since 1970 and was listed in the Top 100 Dutch heritage sites in 1990. The Asian pavilion was designed by Cruz y Ortiz and opened in 2013.
History
21st century
The atrium after the renovation in 2013
In December 2003, the main building of the museum closed for a major renovation. During this renovation, about 400 objects from the collection were on display in the 'fragment building', including Rembrandt's The Night Watch and other 17th-century masterpieces.
The restoration and renovation of the Rijksmuseum are based on a design by Spanish architects Antonio Cruz and Antonio Ortiz. Many of the old interior decorations were restored and the floors in the courtyards were removed. The renovation would have initially taken five years, but was delayed and eventually took almost ten years to complete. The renovation cost ⬠375 million.
The reconstruction of the building was completed on 16 July 2012. In March 2013 the museum's main pieces of art were moved back from the 'fragment building' (Philips Wing) to the main building. The Night Watch returned to the Night Watch Room, at the end of the Hall of Fame. On 13 April 2013, the main building was reopened by Queen Beatrix. On 1 November 2014 the Philips Wing reopened with the exhibition Modern Times: Photography in the 20th Century.
According to Muriel Huisman, Project Architect for the Rijksmuseum's renovation, "Cruz y Ortiz always like to look for a synergy between old and new, and we try not to explain things with our architecture.â With the Rijks, âthereâs no cut between old and new; weâve tried to merge it. We did this by looking for materials that were true to the original building, resulting in a kind of silent architecture."

The collection of the Rijksmuseum consists of 1 million objects and is dedicated to arts, crafts, and history from the years 1200 to 2000. Around 8000 objects are currently on display in the museum.
The collection contains more than 2,000 paintings from the Dutch Golden Age by notable painters such as Jacob Isaakszoon van Ruisdael, Frans Hals, Johannes Vermeer, Jan Steen, Rembrandt, and Rembrandt's pupils.
The museum also has a small Asian collection which is on display in the Asian pavilion.
It also displays the stern of HMS Royal Charles which was captured in the Raid on the Medway, and the Hartog plate.
In 2012 the museum took the unusual step of making some 125,000 high-resolution images available for download via its Rijksstudio webplatform, with plans to add another 40,000 images per year until the entire collection of one million works is available, according to Taco Dibbits, director of collections.
