Vintage Shelf

I picked this up a couple of days ago and thought it'd be the perfect place to display vintage action figures! I mean just look at it! It's magnificently vintage! I don't even think It was made to go on the wall as holes were made in the backing we're I'm assuming nails were used to hang it up. It almost seems like it was part of a small hutch or kitchen nook. It looks like something I would have totally stolen from my mother and used as a backdrop for my figures back in the day. I'm hooked on these vintage styled shelves and will definitely be on the lookout for more👍

Today I realized why I started collecting action figures ,again, as an adult  In the first place. I forgot how therapeutic It Is to simply pick up and pose an action figure. It hit me today while I was taking a closer look at my Ultimate Snake Eyes figure. I know lots of people talk about how blogging can be  so therapeutic and good for the soul. I don't disagree. But I collected before I blogged. Baseball cards, comics and action figures have been curing my ills way before I began posting about it.  Even now , when I'm feeling down  , I'll instinctively walk over to my display shelves to pose random action figures. It takes my mind off of whatever It is that may be  ailing me. The moral of the story here is - Just because your not posting about your collection as much, never take your collection for granted -Try to remember why you began collecting In the first place and enjoy the moment without having to stop, snap a pic and write about it.
