That's a toss up for me, you decide. Its between the roman coins with clasp and arrowhead, Nazi items, or the Yard d*ck marked at 8" for mike....lol

Oh I forgot to mention the 3 urns. Stop putting grandma in storage units people. Have some damn respect for the dead.

Grandma must of been a big woman to take up 3 urns.  :D

And just out of curiosity, why do you have all three of those items in the same picture? Tell me that you took the picture just for us.

1. A preserved shark in a glass jar.
2. A mold of a persons entire mouth including all the teeth.
3. I'm told by a facility manager I have a urn filled with the grandparents in a box I haven't sorted through yet, can't wait to get to that one!

Thee absolutely craziest thing I found...

A photo of a young man (16-19?) in a casket, at his funeral. He is decked out in gang colors (blue, I suppose he was a crip or a folk). His casket is decked in graffitti and gang symbols. He is surrounded by his very multi-cultural family; grandparents, parents, aunts & uncles?, cousins, siblings; young & old, black, white, & hispanic. To top it off EVERYONE is decked out in gang colors & symbols (blue bandanas on the heads, blue hankies hanging out pockets, etc.) and EVERYONE is throwing gang signs with their hands!

I'm cool with having a multi-cultural family, but seeing 4-5 year old kids and grandparents in thier 70s gathered around a young man's casket (probably not a stretch to guess he died as a result of gang activity) throwing gang signs and smiling/posing to look cool/tough for the photo is a bit unnerving.

For me the prison art was the craziest. Beautiful pictures drawn in pencil of mostly naked women. Sure don't want that one to know I got his or his womans stuff. He went to prison for attempted murder according to the court paperwork and newspaper clippings.
