It's not a collectible, but it's a copy of Leaves of Grass my dad stole from his college library in 1969. We were always allowed to read anything while growing up. I pulled it off the shelf when I was 11 and have read it 100 times. It really opened up a world to me. It's held together by a rubber band now, and though I one newer copies, that one is still my favorite.

I have a WWII pocket Bible that my great aunt gave me when my great uncle died in 2000. I carried it around with me while I was in the navy.

My great uncle carried it around with him while he was in the navy serving on a destroyer during the Korean War.

He got it from his uncle that served in the Pacific during WWII.
