Memorabilia of all sorts has been rising in value even in times of economic slowdown. Collectors who can afford to pay for the best don’t stop collecting just because the stock market is down, and those who have been holding onto memorabilia from their favorite celebrities are far more likely to be willing to sell. Those two factors combine to make economically troubled times a major boon for collectors of memorabilia who have a sharp eye. It also means that economically slow times are among the best times to acquire mementoes of your favorite celebrities and genres.
From movie memorabilia to sport memorabilia, there’s often far more on the market during slow economic times than there is during times when everyone is ready, willing and able to buy. Whether you’re looking for movie posters, celebrity memorabilia, Music Memorabilia or even mementoes of Triple Crown winners and horse photos, there are some beautiful pieces available through some of the most reputable dealers of memorabilia. What’s hot in memorabilia right now? Here’s a sampling.
If you’re looking for wall art and décor ideas for a man cave for a sports fan, nothing beats sport memorabilia. Among the most popular types of sport mementoes these days are signed team jerseys, usually framed beautifully and ready to hang on the wall. Other sport memorabilia include signed action photos and autographed equipment from baseball bats to hockey pucks.
Music Memorabilia
The music fan in your life is sure to appreciate one of today’s hottest types of Music Memorabilia – autographed guitars. It seems as if everyone from Justin Bieber to Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler offers a signed guitar, with their signature authenticated, and often framed with a photo or other token of their musical career. You can find autographed guitars framed in collages with concert tickets, pieces of concert costumes and concert posters that will delight any music fan.
Celebrity Autographs
Celebrity autographs have always been hot sellers on the memorabilia market, and that hasn’t changed. What has changed is the presentation. If you acquire your celebrity signature through many dealers, it will be beautifully framed in a museum quality frame, not just for appearance, but for preservation.
If you choose to invest in any type of memorabilia, be sure that your purchase includes authentication. When you buy from a known, reputable dealer, your purchase will always be accompanied by a certificate that proves the origin and authenticity of the piece, and often, with other papers that prove its history.
Now is an excellent time to be looking for gifts of memorabilia or pieces to add to your collection. Check in often with your favorite memorabilia dealers to see what they have available.
