Great job on your website Druggist. Good to see you have had opportunities to display it physically I'm sure you'll have more well before you retire. As far as 'hoarding status' I think as long as you are keeping and displaying your collection as neatly and beautifully as the glass shelf case with lights at the front your going to be fine.  That's great you have an interest in the history of your profession. If I may offer some suggestions for your site: I know some information is lost to time, and you might no more details about items than you posted but it would be interesting to know more of the history of the items. As I see them it looks a bit like they are ads to sell the items rather than a museum piece. Software gives as much or little space for a description as the reader wants. There are a lot of your collection that make me wonder when or where did Doctor ______ practice? is there a modern equivalent to the medicine? if so is the dosage strong/weak? with inflation would it have been very expensive or cheap? The story of Dr. Coult is rather interesting, likely some of the have others have stories of note.  On a lesser note I think you have enough items in the glassware section that it could be broken up into small sub sections maybe by time line or depth of knowledge about the item. Great to see something about you that you are so passionate about.

Schweeet! I'll visit!
