Over the years I have enjoyed collecting various ice-skating memorabilia.  I'm planning to take photographs of some of it and post them here.  Included in my collections are antique ice-skates, figure skating lapel pins, old Ice Capades programs, and antique post-cards.  I even have a Peggy Fleming doll!  Unfortunately she got damaged in storage and needs some time at a doll hospital before she is presentable again.
