Took advantage of one of my Father-in-laws many collections... in fact you could say he has a collection of collections..
Centaur cruiser tank MKiv of 1944
The Centaur tank was closely related to the Cromwell, both vehicles being externally similar. The Cromwell and Centaur tanks differed in the engine used; the Centaur had the 410 hp Liberty engine, the Cromwell had the significantly more powerful 600 hp Meteor; Centaur hulls were converted to Cromwells by changing the engine.
The Centaurs were not used in combat except for those fitted with a 95 mm howitzer, which were used in support of the Royal Marines during the amphibious invasion of Normandy.
This vehicle was converted to a bulldozer tank in 145, sold for scrap in 1957 and bought by the collection in 1978 before being returned to full working order. It is shown in the colours of the Royal Marines Armoured Support Group

Decided to check out the Glenbow Museum, just for kicks. Saw it WAY too many times as a school-age kid on field trips, and was hoping it would be cooler now that I'm an adult. There would have been a lot more pictures if it was.
This shot just doesn't do justice to how cool these rocks really look. Just too much editing required to kill all the noise of a high ISO shot...
I haven't purchased a doll in a few years. This little guy was at the neighborhood garage sale last week and I was able to get the doll and chair for $1.50. His suspenders need to be pulled tighter and tacked in the back. I have always been fond of chairs and am happy to add both of these to my collections.

I made this as a challenge at my local quilt workshops. The challenge was to make something to represent Silver, Gold, Herring Or Whisky. I used the Inklingo Tumbler collection to make the 'gold' 'herring'.
I fell in love with Jem after watching on the HUB and Youtube and so the collection/obsession started.
This image belongs to a series of motor vehicle photographs that do not contain owners or people with the vehicles. Therefore, they do not fall completely within the requirement of my 'Family Car' collection.
I thought however that somebody might like to see the rejects.
They have not been cleaned or restored to the extent of the primary collections, and they will not be placed in any Flickr groups.
If any images receive sufficient 'hits', I will consider cleaning them up for a more public release.

Reproduced from the original negative in my collection.
Yesterday I didn't own a single lighter let alone a zippo. This morning I saw an ad on craigslist for 7 zippos for 30$. Now I have a small collection. The one closest to the camera is a 1973. Unfortunately one of the 7 was a rippo.

Look at the other card with a more classic looking Horror theme and tell me somebody didn't get their wires crossed...
