Welcome to the forum! If you have been singularly focused on 60's Gretsch drums for ten years, my assumption is you might have something to teach us! I, for one, would love to see some photos of what you have been collecting. You will notice that there is a penchant for photos around here. We all love seeing drums, old, new, great, not so great; basically if it is round (or egg shaped like a Trixon, or even shaped like punctuation as we recently saw posted) and has a batter head on it, we want to see it!

The guys here are extremely helpful and there is a wide knowledge base here. It's pretty addicting.
