Collecting History

"Historical artifacts physically manifest the dreams and ideas, the great deeds and events, of human history. They symbolize the glorious triumphs of human endeavor, its humiliating defeats, and just about everything in between.

Nothing quite approaches the thrill of coming face-to-face in the present with an object associated with a famous person or time from the past.

Some artifacts signify gallant and heroic deeds. Others are instruments of evil or the focal points of sacred or bizarre occurrences.

Each has a story to tell, whether an epic chapter or a footnote. Such artifacts open a window on the past, helping us to understand our heritage and ultimately ourselves."

Some of these periods represent the darker side of mankind, with "good versus evil" clearly defined, and larger-than-life heroes and villains.

In other periods (such as World War I) the boundaries are blurred and men fought and died, not always for a clearly defined cause, but because it was their duty.
