The urge to collect has been well-studied by psychologists and the subject of fiction, most notably in John Fowles' novel The Collector.
But we're in some meta world with What a Collection, a collection of collections. If you're a collector, you can join for free, which allows you to use the site to create your own website, showing off your goods.
For the rest of us, it's fun just to browse through casino match covers, old glass seltzer bottles, and World's Fair memorabilia. The woman who collects coffins, though, has us worried.
