  Largest collection of napkins: Antonia Kozakova breaks Guinness world record

RUSKA, Slovakia -- Antonia Kozakova, 39, has amassed a collection of 62,500 napkins that could be worth $480,000 (£300,000); it took her 16 years to amass them, and she keeps them piled up in her office; Kozakova has broken her own Guinness World Records' record three times and now sets the new world record for the Largest collection of napkins, according to the World Record Academy: www.worldrecordacademy.com/ .

The previous Guinness World Records' record for the largest collection of napkins was 50,000 and belongs to Antónia Kozáková (Slovakia) in Michalovce, Slovakia on 1 August 2012.

  Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the largest collection of sugar packets; it consists of 9,596 different sugar packets and belongs to Kristen Dennis (USA), in Chicago, USA.

  Among the 39-year-old Slovakian's many holdings: a tiny 2-inch napkin, a 4-foot-long napkin and one that dates back to the 1940s.

  Kozakova tells the Daily Mail she has no plans to stop collecting and intends to reach 100,000 napkins. Beyond that, her goals are modest.

 "I want to have a napkin with my face and name on it," she says.
