In The Lovely Bones, what are all of the objects Mr. Harvey collects from his victims?

In Chapter 11,
readers learn that Mr. Harvey kept the bodies of animals he'd killed hidden in his crawlspace.
In Chapter 14, readers see that he keeps an odd sketchbook. In Chapter 15, though, we get the
most explicit statement of what you're looking for: Mr. Harvey has drilled a hole in the
foundation of his house, and he keeps the souvenirs he took from all the dead women there.
That's where you'd find his "trophy bag." Of course, the materials he doesn't keep he
throws in the sinkhole, and I suspect there's some trace  in the secret place where he raped
Susie, but those are accidental.
