Collectors often like to share their knowledge -- or show it off, as the case may be. In this area, I'll include a quiz question that has to do with my collection. E-mail me if you know the answer.

This week's question: In what year were Hummel figurines first introduced?

Answer to last week's question: The rarest Beanie Baby is widely thought to be the original "Peanut the Royal Blue Elephant." Only 2,000 were produced.

In this area, I might put a picture of my most prized collectible -- the one I refuse to put up for sale!
