    Hello Kurt!

    [...] I bought a book called "The Incredible world of Spy-fi" by
    a guy who collects TV memorobilia, especially old spy TV shows.

    "So thorough is his collection that the CIA visited the
    Archives and invited Biederman to display a portion from his
    massive treasury at CIA headquarters."

    The shoe phone in Get Smart was always a good laugh.


    He has a collection of Mission Impossible memorobilia,
    like all of the newspapers, coins, passports, etc from the
    fictional countries they infiltrated, the self-destructing
    tapes and business cards that Jim Phelps used.

    With an extensive collection like that, I suppose one can earn
    a nice stipend to be invited to display pieces from the
    collection as a kind of travelling museum.

    At this point in my life, the emptier of "stuff" my house is,
    the better.


    For a TV show, they did an amazing job creating a reality.

    Bond had some nifty gadgets too.
