Sideshow Featured Collector Ross Paperman

Montreal funeral director Ross Paperman displays his collection at his family-run funeral home, where he helps people during difficult times of emotion and sorrow.

“You deal with sadness every single day, and this is such an opposite kind of thing to be in an office surrounded by toys but it’s not only good for me it’s great for families… It takes their mind off things, puts people at ease,” he says.

“It’s done so much good, and it’s so positive, that I’m grateful.”
