Collectors are very special people. An old doll, a rare piece of porcelain, or a million-dollar chair are all examples of something that fits into a collection to be studied and enjoyed.  Sometimes a collection is part of the decorating in a home.  Sometimes it brings back joyous memories of one's childhood.  Collecting is more than hoarding.  A true collector considers the search, the research, the trips to auctions and shows, the talks with other collectors as part of the recreation of life.  Some people play golf, read, go to the horse races or out dancing.  Collectors may do all of these things but they also go to collecting events and enjoy the thrill of the chase, the joy of ownership, and the company of other collectors. 

This article was shared by Elaine Buol for the Iowa Button Bulletin and is about Collectors.  She found it in a collector's journal.
