Antiquities.

So I've spent the last day of break watching Pawn Stars on the History Channel. It's so impressive how much the pawn shop owners know about the history of basically everything that comes into their shop. The coolest thing was probably the book that was owned by Isaac Newton. There was also muskets and diaries from the Civil War and a heat seeker from a missile. I love anything old so I hope that maybe someday I can start a collection. I currently have a Collins French-English Dictionary from 1962. Old books are the most fun; I always check the copyright date of every book I get a hold of. There's just something exciting about an item with some history to it.
