Inside One Man’s Lifetime Collection of Treasures

Behind the modest doors of a rural shed in Western Australia lies a lifetime of collecting that would rival any museum.

Kevin Green has spent decades amassing thousands of items, from watches and clocks to Titanic memorabilia, Coca-Cola collectibles, toy cars, and dolls that seem to stare right back at you.

His passion began in childhood on the Goldfields, where he and friends would gather discarded bottles to cash in at the local deli, an upbringing that taught him to “appreciate old.”

Today, his collection spans countless themes—military items, radios, tools, sewing gear, and more—and Green can recall the story behind every single piece.

His favorites are anything with a military connection. The collection remains private, with only a select few granted a look, but Green hopes it inspires others to slow down, appreciate the past, and see the value in the stories these objects hold.
