"As Hegel put it, only when it is dark does the owl of Minerva begin its flight. Only in extinction is the collector comprehend."

Every snapshot collector has obsessions. Some only collect photos of cars. Others like World War II, or babies, or old-timey girls in old-timey swimsuits. I happen to collect the weird stuff: photos that make the hair on the back of your neck stand up a little. The uncanny.
