About Me

Arnon Reisman: Israel; My name is Arnon. I was born in Israel on October 5th, 1965. I am married to a lovely wife - her name is Nitza. We have 3 gorgeous kids - Yamit, Yarden and Yuval. I was infected with the collecting virus at a young age, and since then I have been collecting matchboxes and matchbooks. For many years my little collection was left behind in a shoe box up in my closet, and once in a while, when I found an item, I have thrown it in the box. Lately I have met some other Phillumenist friends through Facebook and have decided to renew my old collection, and started to exchange matchboxes with them...it's great fun. I would be happy if you leave your comments on my posts. If you are a Phillumeny collector and wish to exchange items with me, or just want to ask a question, please contact me on arnon482@gmail.com . I always answer. Kind regards, Arnon
