It is quite difficult to show all the collection. Taking a picture of each single item would take to much time. However, I would like to present you a slight part of my collection in pictures. I keep the most of items in files. I also save envelopes but I don't collect them. Items which are too big and don't fit into files are kept in envelopes in which were received.
