The art work of Coop: www.coopstuff.comI have a skateboard deck that you can't find for love nor money anymore, 2 litho posters framed and up on the wall, and about 8 silkscreens waiting in cardboard tubes to be sorted out.

Nothing...
As a kid, I collected match books and packets of sugar. Stopped collecting them at 14 or so.
Since then, I don't think I've really collected anything.
I've not thrown out magazines in the past, ending up with thousands of the darned things, but two long distance moves has got me into getting rid of anything I don't actually need, so magazines get thrown out every month or so.

I sort of collect mugs from places I've visited, (and if I know someone is going on holiday I'll always ask them to get me one) but it's not a serious collection, just a series of vessels from which to drink tea/coffee.

Awesome choice - he's always been one of my favourite artists. Me? I collect nothing but memories.

Pens. i.e. corporate freebies. Must have about two pots full of different varieties.

Scars.  No seriously, since I started racing like 4 years ago or so, I've gradually built up my scar level, and my metal/bone ratio has increased.  I collect old hardware, games consoles and stuff like that. I know its not going with the spirit of it, but I have like every games console from the Sega Master System 1 all the way to a 360 (other than a PS3  ) I have loads of old PCs. The oldest working PC I have is a 386SX machine, running DOS 5 and Windows 2 (IIRC).

Knowledge.
I have a voracious appetite for knowledge and if I'm not learning I get bored instantly.....

Macs and games computers/consoles.
Not got a great collection, I've got:
ZX Spectrum NES Megadrive PS1 PS2 PS3
Macintosh SE/30 Macintosh LCII Macintosh Performa 630 Motorola StarMax 4000 (won't boot without new PRAM battery) PowerMacintosh G3 PowerMacintosh B&W G3 PowerMacintosh G4 Digital Audio 733MHz PowerMacintosh G4 Quicksilver 867MHz PowerMacintosh G4 Mirror Door Dual 800MHz PowerMacintosh G5 Dual 2.5GHz
I'd collect snowboards, but I can't afford any more than the one I've got.
Edit: Just read the OP properly and seen that the above doesn't count. when I was a kid I collected Dandy comics and I still have everyone between 1985 and 1991 or thereabouts at my parents' house.
