Curious...!
Collector of what kind(s) of music...and in what format(s)...?! Near as I
can figger, you started collecting when you were three (more or less)
years old...and most of the "toddlers" I have known have/had neither
established tastes in music, or sufficient interest to establish and
maintain (as well as looking up in various publications...?!) a
collection of sound recordings?!
In fact, I used to PLAY my dad's 78's at age three...but didn't start
collecting (and then researching) 78's until another three or so decades
had passed (after which I "made up for lost time"...!).
