Jim,
Matchbooks are easy...they're small, not breakable and they're organized alphabetically! No searching required.

Ashtrays are another matter...sigh... A few years ago I was organizing and taking pictures, and packing them well and listing on the boxes what was in them. The project never got completed (another sigh ), and not too long ago the stacks of photo'd & packed & labelled boxes got combined with the stacks of "haven't a clue what's in this one" boxes... Whatta mess!

And yes, you'd love to spend some time in our basement (and living room, and dining room, and bar, and 1/2 bath, and .....)!

And why aren't you showing off some of your stuff? I know you've got tons of stuff that we don't have!
