- The McDonalds Dolls with theatre. It was SO much fun collecting it all, and well worth it too!

- A photo of me with Lex Goudsmit. Lex is an actor from the Dutch Sesame Street. He played the grandfather type, and he died a couple of years ago (he was very old). I met Lex at the art gallery where my mom works. He was a regular customer and a friend of the owners', and often he would show up at parties and sing Jewish songs. I was so surprised when I was sitting in the basement of that gallery and Lex came in to greet me and take a photo! I recently found it back and it's now hanging over my Palisades cupboard...

THAT is really great. I met Lex once, but from very far. He walked on the beach, when I was lying on the beach. I was very young, 8 or so. I should have asked an autograph. It was a fantastic actor and singer.

I'm not much of a collector, so I don't have a whole lot of things. But my most treasured items come from the performers. Back when I was thinking about creating a Richard Hunt fan site, I wrote letters to some of the performers. Their replies are so special to me, and I have them framed (and Martin P. Robinson sent me copies of some of the pictures or Richard that he has, so I have those pictures framed as well)...
