Does anyone have any suggestions for ways to photograph parts of my
collection? All i have is a basic 35mm camera and a polaroid...

Should i use high speed 35mm film becasue of low light conditions indoors,
or is a slower speed more important? Or is it important to have a white
background for contrast.. Or should i try placing things on a flat bed
scanner, etc..

Any suggestions are appreciated. I want to photograph some of my rarer
items (Teraks, Sun 1, if you saw that Burroughs core memory that just
sold on ebay I have one of those too plus a foot long chunk of wire-wrapped
boards from that computer, etc).
