Collecting is a prevalent hobby in our culture as sometimes weird and quirky items become our affection. Sneakers, clothing, vinyl, toys, cameras, candy bars, regional McDonald’s pies, their innocent nature can sometimes involve a more meaningful existence. Whether subconsciously or through deliberate efforts, the sounds of that vintage vinyl or the construction of that generations-old piece of furniture are not to be overlooked. For YMC’s Fraser Moss, comic books, vintage fashion, vinyl and other general oddball items have all captured his attention over the years. We were interested to see his insights into the art of collecting and how his passions began. For many, it seems that collecting itself holds strong references to one’s childhood and arguably situates itself as one’s own personal way of keeping track of their important times in their lives.
