People collect different things. Some people find a backscratcher handy from time to time, but not many people
think of collecting them.
Manfred S. Rothstein, a dermatologist from the USA, did. Nowadays he has the largest collection of backscrat-
chers in the world and it`s been officially recorded in the Guinness World Records. He owns 675 backscratchers
from 71 countries. The collection started in 1970s and, as its owner is a dermatologist, he keeps his backscrat-
chers in his clinic.
Although not everyone uses a backscratcher, there are probably no people who do not use a bar soap. Actual-
ly, soaps are collected, too. The biggest collection belongs to Carol Vaughan from the United Kingdom. She has
collected 1331 individual soaps but the best thing for her is to come across a soap in the shape she has never
seen before. Recently she has been amazed when she got a gift from a friend – a cheesecake-shaped soap bar.
Mrs Vaughan`s collection is impressive, but she is far from being sure there are no soap-shapes in the world she
does not own. Professor Mark McKinley, who collects talking clocks, can say he has not only the largest collec-
tion of these items in the world – but also the complete one.
„No one gives me clocks anymore, because… I have them all”, he said once to one of the newpapers.
Professor McKinley`s collection started when he wanted to buy a clock for a present for his mother. He liked it
so much that he has already gathered 932 talking clocks… and the collection is still expanding.
