Abstract:
Many North Carolinians are collectors of standard objects, like coins, stamps, or baseball cards. Tomlin introduces four individuals whose collections are a bit different. They are Marie Lawrence of Morehead City, who collects deviled-egg plates; Mace Quidley of Camden, a collector of vintage gas pumps; Bill Michal of High Point, who collects antique banjos; and Jerome Gundrum of Snead's Ferry, a collector of root beer memorabilia.
