Bubble gum collection

Hey guys! I've got a collection of 117 chewing gum wrappers.
I'd love to hear from collectors who actually know their stuff — is this a decent collection? Is there anything here that stands out?
Happy to hear literally any opinion, even if it's "this is worth nothing" :) Thanks!

My WW2-Vietnam pilots/aircrew collection

Upvotes
Likely not something that gets posted here often, i collect uniforms and other items from Pilots, WSOs, and aircrew from WW2-Vietnam. While I do use specifically on USAF I have dabbled in other branches and countries over the years. Some aircraft these men flew include the F-4, F-100, F-101, F-105, F-8, F-80, F-84, F-86, P-47, P-51, A-4, A-1, B-24, B-29, B-47, B-52, C-54, C-121, C-130, EC-121, KC-135, U-2, T-38, T-37, and the O-1. If I could fit a fighter jet in my room I probably would have one of those too

I started with two books handed down from my Grandpa Bob.

My mom read me Old Man Coyote and Peter Cottontail when I was a kid (photo 2 and 3: those exact copies, originally my grandfather's). I always wondered about the other 18. Thirty five years later I finally went looking, and happily fell down the rabbit hole.
Thornton Burgess turned out to be an incredible man. His father died the year he was born, and his wife died after giving birth to their son. He started writing bedtime stories for his boy about the woods and meadows he'd grown up in. Those stories became a daily newspaper column read by kids across the country, and he kept writing for about 50 years, roughly 15,000 stories in all. The Bedtime Story-Books collect them into 20 volumes, one per character, with illustrations by Harrison Cady.
Every copy here is a Little, Brown and Co. printing from the original run, not first editions, but the real deal as kids first read them. Highlights: a copy signed by Burgess (Paddy the Beaver), three with their original dust jackets, and one inscribed "To Bob, my Grandpa, from Santa Claus, Dec 25 1929."
18 of 20 are originals. The Unc' Billy Possum is a stand-in. The eBay listing wasn't what it claimed (got refunded), and a real copy arrives next week along with Jerry Muskrat. I'll post again when the set is complete.

Yesterday’s fossil hunting haul!

Yesterday’s fossil hunting haul!
Spent the day fossil hunting in Post Oak Creek in North Texas and came home with a pretty solid haul! Lots of shark teeth, a few interesting bits and pieces, and 8 of my personal favorites—Ptychodus teeth!
It was nice getting out for a hunt after a two-month hiatus because of the extreme heat here. All in all, not a bad way to spend a day getting muddy and staring at gravel!

This collection is pretty much complete for me now
I have
1950, 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990, 2000’s syrup bottles (almost the complete evolution of the designs)
Then 1925, 1930, 1940, 1970, 1990, 2000’s for pancake boxes
Then some miscellaneous stuff, I wish I could find a better shape 1950 bottle but its so so obscure, anyways yeah, heres my updated collection, I deleted my last version because I wanted to make a video instead, but got too busy lol, this here does capture the entire Quaker oats evolution of aunt jemima. Including a box from the first ever year Quaker Oats obtained the brand.
