Just 58 lenses? That's a good start. My database says I have 158 but I may have missed a couple. Put them all out for group shots? My wife won't be away from the house long enough for that.
More seriously, that's a mighty impressive klock of Vivs. Where the hell do you stash that many long lenses? I have little cabinets stuffed with short glass, but the longer lenses get to stand nose-down on bookshelves (mostly in front of the AI / cybernetics books).
Congrats on a nice collection!

I have semi-clear plastic stack drawers bought at Wal-Mart for a pittance. I store them on their sides in freezer bags in these drawers where indirect sunlight can reach them and the temp and humidity can be controlled. Also stored without the lens caps to allow that sunlight to get in.

I just passed one up to buy the 35-85 variable focus lens. The 90mm f/2.5 Macro by Tokina is on my radar though.
