If you count books individually, yes, that would be at the top of my list as well.

A funny book story:

When I was in high school my parents discovered that people who used their personal libraries professionally could claim depreciation on their books as a tax deduction. To do this we had to inventory the books (came out to slightly over 5000) and approximate their value. This took us weeks, the whole family working on it. Later the IRS called my father, suspicious about the figures. Not sure what happened; I think he invited them to come over and have a look.
