Paul Gambino has been an avid collector of the bizarre for over 25 years with an extensive collection of Victorian memorial photographs, antique funeria, mug shots, and vintage religious items.

Paul is the author of some absolutely gorgeous books (which I recommend you get your hands on ASAP): MORBID CURIOSITIES: Collections of the Uncommon and the Bizarre, SKULLS: Portraits of the Dead and the Stories They Tell, and KILLER COLLECTIONS: Dark Artifacts from True Crime. In July of 2024 Paul will release his latest book, The Art of Gothic Living: Dark Decor for the Modern Macabre.

We chatted about collecting, got to know more about collectors, learned about dope ass collections, talked about mortality and death, the ethics of collecting, and bunch of other juicy shit you don't wanna miss!
