Allrighty then...let's collect some more fun!

Sir, that is one of the finest vintage leaves I have ever seen. How did you manage to find a vintage "dentated lanceolate" in such good condition???? Hardcore leaf-collectors (or leafers as they are affectionately known in Botany circles) would pay upwards of £25k for this Patek Phillipe of the plant organ world! I mean, the bowed shape, the arcing spine, the embossed texture of the vascular tissue and the elaborately decorated marks on the epidermis (circa 1967 no???) are immense and of particular interest to this novice leaf collector. I have only been collecting nigh-on 4 years but one day hope to uncover a treasure like the one you own. Well done and godspeed!!!!!!!!

I think you should sell your "LEAF" and buy a decent Macro lens........ the ling looks out of focus there.....and buy more cheese with what ever is left over....

Wow, I stopped reading this thread for a few days only to see it's gone to hell in a handbasket... oh wait, it was already there I guess... so where is it now?

That leaf still has its original patina...which is impressive for such a rare specimen. I would reccomend, however, that you bring it to a good restorer and maybe the crack on the left hand side can be repaired. At the very least you could take a cape cod to it and give it a spruce.

what about the cheese,is it about time to put it out on the porch yet

all you cheese fans out there might like to know that the first commercial cheese factory was founded 194 years ago yesterday in Switzerland. You learn something new (and useless) everyday!!!!!!!!

Don't know much about cheese other than I love it, AND Mozzarella is my favorite!

I made a pilgrimage to the cheese factory once, saw the whole process and I have to say that their service department is top notch! I have some pictures somewhere but linking to them is kind of a pain. I'm actually a fan of all cheeses but swiss is not my top choice.

It seems as though everyone has a collection, mine are: Snap on Tools (Helicopter Mechanic) parts to build my own helicopter (starting with nuts and bolts), a Corvette, change to pay for the gas for the boat and Sea Doo, Tuition bills from my two sons.... and Mardi Gras Beeds (they come in handy in the French Quarter in New Orleans)....also hangovers

Holy Mackerel!!!

I collect $1 casino chips, random home poker chips (approx 1800 & counting), 70's & 80's BMX & freestyle bikes, cufflinks, and beer glasses. Nothing all that valuable, just fun stuff.

We talked about this before, right?
