I am the Ingy part of this nic and I started collecting all types of breweriana about 5 years ago. Very soon I ran out of room to display it all properly so I decided to only collect about 6 different brands. Again very soon I began running out of room so I slowly started trimming the collections. In the end I only had 2 collections left Johnnie Walker and White Horse Whisky. Then I had to make the big decision. White Horse Whisky won mainly because it has not been commercialised with cheap Chinese immitations and with what I class as cheap junk promotional items used by some distilleries to boost profits. My collection now requires an entire room to display it. The only items I stay away from is advertisements.......the reason being because there are literally thousands of them out there and it would be impractical to collect and display them properly. Because of the size of the collection I now have difficulty in locating interesting new items so as with most collectors the thrill is now in the hunt.....it gives one a real buzz when I pick up a rare or unusual item. So I hope you enjoy viewing my humble collection and I wish you well in your particular collection. Don't forget to check out the old girls Blue & White ceramics / porcelain Windmill collection.
