June 2005 The Answer to a Packrat’s Prayers

What do baseball cards, clocks, dolls, maps, and teapots have in common? You can bring order to collections of them using Collectify MyStuff software.
Whether you are passionate about paintings, sculpture or glass, this program gathers all the tools you need for cataloging. Describe the location, condition and price of each piece, import images, keep track of loans and donations, record personal stories for prosperity, or create a slideshow of recent acquisitions to share with friends, all from your personal computer.
Franklin Silverstone, creator of Collectify MyStuff, came up with the idea while managing Charles Bronfman’s collection of Canadian decorative arts. Silverstone had spent thousands on software, only to be disappointed. So he developed this less expensive and easy-to-use cataloging software for anyone, not just museum collectors.
“The software is actually educational,” says Silverstone, because it tells you the kinds of questions you should be able to answer about your collection. It costs $99.95.
