Have I ever told you about my disorder? I'm OK, just have to watch my CMC... Compulsive Matchbox label Collecting. It's been a problem for some time now, particularly when it comes to Czech labels from the 50s and 60s. I'd be careful, you can catch it quite easily and I don't think there's a remedy...
They're great aren't they, there is something comforting about match boxes. Perhaps it's from those days gone by when we had endless power cuts, as long as you had a box of matches and candles everything was Ok. I think that's why the images from matchboxes are imprinted in my mind. Adele
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI already suffer from this disorder. I agree it is catching.

Oh no I think I'm coming down with it now, it's very contagious is there a cure?
ReplyDeleteI caught it off my sister! she has thousands, and keeps her sources a closely guarded secret. They are so sweet, like tiny little posters.

ReplyDeleteI have it too and it seems to be mutating into compulsive stamp collecting!
ReplyDeletethese are so lovely, do you know the Busy Town book its Japanese and its big collection of Matchboxes?
ReplyDeleteI will post it soon on Stickers and Stuff.
ADORABLE!! sorry for shouting but I have an illness, it's been diagnosed as CMC! Ah they are so cute!
