I use an Excel spreadsheet, where each item is sorted by mod code (B2, C1, etc.), with the non-coded items (DMG, etc.) at the end, in product code order. It's like that because I originally started it to sort out the modules I had, then it grew once I discovered this site and decided that I indeed was a collector. I only have about 200 items total, which I'm sure pales in comparison to others here. So how do we track our collections?Beetle

But I don't like the direction that TSR art went after then (Easley, Elmore, Parkinson etc).I also have some other post-1982 stuff on pdf from RPGnow, like UK4-7. That's a space saver.Anyway, I'm not down on large collections. I'm just short on space these days.
