My "hobby" is a combination collection and research project. I have just finished the manuscript for the first "Complete Identification and Price Guide to Vintage Children's Records". It will be published by Collector Books in February, 2007. See elsewhere on this Website to pre-order your copy. I currently have nearly 10,000 individual titles in my collection and listings of 4500 more.

This is a labor of love and will probably never be completed, as previously unknown issues come to my attention frequently. Many of the record companies which issued kiddie records have long since gone out of business and did not leave behind any archives. But it is lots of fun, especially because most of my research is "first time"--in other words, there are no existing complete anthologies of all kiddie records across the board. Sure, there are some advanced collectors and researchers, but most are focused on a particular segment (e.g. Disney characters, picture discs, etc.)
