It's been talked about in other threads, but the topic deserves its own thread.
Who collects swimming memorabilia? What's in your collection? Pictures? Autographs? Ribbons? Medals? Here is the place to talk about objects and artifacts you have that relate to the history of the sport of swimming.
OK, I'll start. Since I seem to have a 'bad girl' thing going with a surprise Eleanor Holm autograph, I thought an autographed copy of FHM with Amanda Beard (World's Sexiest Athlete cover) would be an essential. I saw one today on eBay and bought it for $10.49. In my lifetime, it may achieve an auction value greater than that. :cane:
I may have to bring a copy of the Amanda issue of Playboy to the Olympic Trials (in a plain brown wrapper, of course) and hunt her down for an autograph. For lack of a better description, signed copies of FHM and Playboy would make a nice pair.

We keep age group records in all events the home PC. Down and back is quite close to being equivalent to 25 meters. My 10 year old son holds all of the 10 and under records. I own all of the male 35-39 and 40-45 records. My wife holds all of the 35-39 age records...
May I come over to your house? I want to set all of the women's 45-49 records. It will probably be the only time in my life I ever hold records. :)
