Sheila Crown of Marlborough, Wiltshire, UK has a collection of 10,502 frog items that she has been collecting since 1979.  The frogs were put on display at the FrogsGalore Museum, Marlborough, UK on 12 May 2002.

Sheila began her collection in 1979, when she bought a frog for her green-painted study. Since then, the collection grew so large that she was forced to move to a bigger house.  It consequently took removal men seven days to pack the collection.  The pinnacle of her hobby is the 2,690sq ft granary that now houses the collection and is affectionally known as 'The FrogsGalore Museum'.  The frog museum is said to be the first of its kind in the UK.
