The collection was started in the 1960s when a paper mache Jack-O-Lantern was found at a garage sale for only a few cents. The hunt was on! Many more items were found at garage sales and auctions. Some were given by friends and a few were purchased new. The items are made from paper, plastic, wax, tin, and ceramics.
Dan's collection continues to grow and now includes several hundred unique items.
