As far as comics go, I have collected US, Canadian and Dutch comedy-based comic books from 1938-1966 (Dutch books till the present(as I still collect books that include stories worked on by myself and Dutch, Danish and German colleagues and friends)). I inherited hundreds of books from 1938-1948 from my older cousins who lived with us, or very nearby) and started getting my own in 1949 and stopped buying new Canadian and US books in 1966, and new Dutch books around 2000. Now, thanks to DCM and CB+, as well as other sources, I only read digital copies of them, as well as thousands of comic books from the 1930s through 1950s that I had never bought on paper, many to which I never had access.
I also have been a big ice hockey fan and Canadian and US football fan, and had bought hockey cards as a kid during the 1950s. I still follow The NHL and a couple leagues in Sweden, Denmark and Holland.
I also collected vinyl music records of from 1936-1970, starting to buy them in 1953, and, except for a handful of record swaps, ending in 1972, when I moved permanently to The Netherlands. I collected mainly Rhythm & Blues, Delta and Chicago Blues, Jazz, Gospel, and Soul music. Although I still have the original records. I never play them anymore, I just listen to digital recordings of them.
Like several other members here, I also love old films and TV shows. Since my semi-retirement started (I still work on a few comic book stories each year), I watch hundreds of old ones (late 1920s through the mid 1960s, or so,) of US, Canadian, British, Australian, Irish, South African, Dutch, Belgian, Danish and Swedish films, and TV shows. I've never bought or made copies for myself. I just watch them on You-Tube and a few other no-charge websites, or watch them from my friends' video collections, or on my 4 Trans-Atlantic Airplane flights per year from Europe to Canada and USA on which, I can usually fit in 6 feature films per flight (That was all pre-Pandemic, of course).
