Darlene is a Cali girl who began collecting unique shoe related items after her heartbreaking divorce in 2001. Since then she’s collected over 16,400 footwear themed items! She even has replicas of Cinderella’s glass slipper and Dorothy’s red shoes; I bet you can’t guess her favorite movies!

Janet started her collection in the early 1970s, and now she has over 6,000 Mickey Mouse related items. Janet is much more dedicated than I was; I tried to start a Tweety Bird collection before, but I think I stopped at 15 items.
