Christian Wyss's passion for collecting began in his youth. Back then, he was fascinated by stamps; today, it's Swiss national maps, nonfiction, and history books. The 64-year-old farmer, who cares for around 60 sheep and lambs on his farm, recalls receiving the book "Pioneers of Alpine Topography" for his 50th birthday.
