On the wall behind my desk at work is hanging an old 250 series head gasket. It is my wall art. It's amazing how much attention it attracts.

Home office looks like this:

One wall is all book cases. One of the book cases is all Ferrari-related books.

Hanging on two other walls are Nicholas Watts prints (Le mans 1954 and Le Mans 1958) autographed by Phil Hill, J.M. Fangio, F. Gonzalez, K. Kling, and H. Herrman and a Jay Koka print of a black Lusso.

Standing display case containing approx 30 BBR and MR 1/43 models, all of vintage Ferraris.

Scattered around on available wall space are framed photos of vintage Ferraris I've taken over the years and a cartoonish "Mole Art" drawing of a 250 GTO.

Stashed in the closet because I have no space left to display them are several other F-car prints, videos, magazines collections, and (if this doesn't make me a certified nut, I don't know what does) an autograph of Luigi Chinetti, Sr.

The desk is covered with the work that I'm currently doing (all Ferrari related, of course).

All of that and I don't even own a Ferrari!

I have hardly any personal belongings at my desk. With the economy the way it is, it makes packing easier if necessary.

At home, I have some Chevron cars.

Pair of 360s (Modena and Spyder) at work and many pics on the computer. At home I have a 360, 550M, 550B, BMW 850i, and a Porsche Carrera GT. Also have a hand-painted shield and 550B on a bottle of Woodbridge (I bought it for the pic, not the wine). I gave the F40 model to my brother. I'm debating getting the mouse pad-mug-pencil holder setup for my desk.

I'm only into the 1:1 models :-), but I picked up three TR tech posters from Kurt W. that I had framed, and I rotate them between my garage and office walls (1 in the office, 2 in the garage):
engine cross-section

gearbox cross-section
gearbox
oil flow

Also got a (about D-sized) blueline of the Pininfarina "Designo Quote Di Massima" for the 512TR from the guy in the Netherlands (whose name escapes me right now) hung in my office as well.

While unboxing 2 more 1/18 models for my office this morning, I wondered how many of you carry this obsession to work too. On my desk I have a 288GTO, 355TS, F40, and 360 Spyder. I also have a pic of a 348 Challenge on my Sept. calendar. On the bookshelf in my office is a 550 Barchetta, 328, Daytona Spyder, 550, 360 Coupe, 456, F50, TR, 250GTO, 512BB, a couple of shields and various other junk. It would take me a week to move out of here.
