On Have I Got News For You, there are some obscure magazines. But someone on another forum recently posted this link:
http://www.antiquebarbedwiresociety.com/

Can this be beaten for obscure interest?

Electricity pylon appreciation society.

EDIT It doesn't beat barbed wire appreciation but it's still pretty obscure.

I remember an article in Timeout about people who have an obsession with collecting weird things. They cited some guy who collected carrots (apparently there are over 100 types of carrot worldwide, according to the article). Also someone who collected railway carriage light fittings.
