Top 10 Things I've Never Seen

Over the course of my mushroom hunting and studying journey, there are some pieces I've only seen in photos from old auction or sale sites, ancient websites from the early aughts, or in pictures shared by other collectors online. Among them are appliance covers, magnets, can opener, sprinkling can, and cork board. These pictures provide visual evidence that they really do exist in our realm.

However, there are some pieces that are so rare I have yet to see even a photo on an decades-old blog or foreign "auction" site. Dare I say that these are among my unicorn pieces? To even just see a photograph of one (or more!) of the Top 10 Things I've Never Seen would be magical.
