Welcome to my
personal collection of stuff
On this page you will find an ongoing
chronicle of my personal collection of radios, antique
electronics, 'quack' medical devices, Tesla coils, Van de
Graaf generators and other interesting items that I have
accumulated over the years. Some are antiques, some are
reproductions, some are experiments and others are just
plain fun to play with. Hope you like this page and
hopefully you will see something that will interest you,
something that will intrigue you or possibly even stuff
that may surprise you.
For the most part, the items on these
pages are not for sale at this time unless they are listed
on my
"items for sale" page. However if you see something
that strikes your fancy by all means
email me and we
can discuss that option.
I am constantly building links and adding
pictures of different things at time permits. Please bear with me as I
work to build this site.
Thanks,
Jeff

Another thing that I am
very passionate about are the racing planes of the 1930's.
I absolutely love those beautiful and graceful air racers,
especially the unique little racer known as the Gee Bee
Racer. This was the brainchild of the Granville Brothers,
hence the GB. They thought it was better to have a proper
name instead of just some initials, so the Gee Bee was
born.
Click on the Gee Bee
Racer for a history and some great pictures of the Gee Bee
R-1, Gee Bee R-2, Gee Bee "Z" and all the other racers in
the Granville Brothers stable of planes.

Click on the picture of the Hall
'Bulldog'
Racer for some history of the 1930's Air Racing Circuit
and a history of other great Air Racers of that great Era.

I have literally hundreds of photos
in my collection of racing planes, unique and innovative
planes and just some great pictures of antique planes in
general. I hope you will take a minute to look and get a
little more acquainted with these great works of art and
the courageous men and women who piloted them.
