Any lapel pins that need a home?

Every now and then, it’s worth it to put it out there..

If you have a lapel pin that is sitting in a drawer somewhere and you want it enshrined forever, let me know.

One of my hobbies (here how it all began) is lapel pin collecting.  I have over 800 of them and each is logged in a spreadsheet with location/date of acquisition and notes.

You and your pin will be immortalized.

Seeking Lapel Pins

I don’t have many hobbies, but one I do have is that I collect lapel pins.

It began when I was 7 and went to England with my family. Clamoring for souvenirs, my dad purchased a few for me since they were lightweight and cheap.

Since then, I’ve continued to use lapel pins as memory markers and sometimes buy them on trips or receive them as gifts of friendship.

So, if you have some lying in drawers and you don’t want them anymore. Let me know.

I’m up to 670. All categorized, as you might expect.
