You're either a Space Invader or a SMART Collector. I was a Space Invader. I collected anything and everything. I started with a roomfull of shelves and ended up with stacks of cool stuff...in bins, boxes, and bags. I was spending most of my pay check treasure hunting. My marriage nearly ended. And nobody wanted my stuff.
That was then, this is now! It took some time to get things back under control, but I can totally call myself a SMART Collector. My collection is specific, manageable, affordable, responsible, and tradable!
My monthly column: "Atari Lee's Collector Tip," is featured in Michael Salzman's, Unauthorized Atari 2600 Throw Back Zine. Every issue is packed with Atari nostalgia, history, and game strategy too! Starting with Issue 23, it comes with a SMART Collecting Tip from me! Available at Amazon.com
