Collectors love autographed sports memorabilia and signed movie memorabilia.
From autographed game jerseys to signed guitars and signed movie
posters, celebrity autographs carry a special cachet with collectors
that ordinary movie memorabilia and sports collectibles don’t have. Even
so, there are some pieces of movie and sports memorabilia that are more
collectible than others. Every once in a while, an especially rare or
popular piece of Hollywood memorabilia or autographed sports memorabilia
crops up that is met with a great deal of interest and high demand.
These are a few collectibles that have lit up the market in the past few
years.
Star Wars Poster
Star
Wars posters are always in big demand. As one of the longest lasting
and most popular movie franchises of all times, Star Wars has spawned an
entire industry of Star Wars collectibles,
toys and posters. Easily the most popular of all Star Wars movie
posters is the Star Wars The Duel poster, featuring Luke Skywalker
facing off against Darth Vader. Celebrity autographs make this
particular poster even more valuable and push it up onto the most wanted
list.
James Bond
In
the world of movie franchises, James Bond is in a class by itself.
While most of the “series” movie franchises have been the creative
vision of one particular producer or director, James Bond has captured
the creative vision of numerous directors, producers and stars. It is
also unique in that the title character has been played by a variety of
stars, and each of them has placed an indelible stamp on the character.
Roger Moore, Sean Connery and others have each breathed life into the
debonair 007, and each has his proponents regarding the claim to be the
best Bond of all time. While all James Bond movie posters are
collectible, some of the most valued pieces of Bond memorabilia are
those that combine several versions of James Bond in one frame.
Autographed Sports Memorabilia
As
game rooms and man caves become more and more popular, sales of
autographed sports memorabilia are hitting record highs. There are a few
items that always seem to make it onto every list of “ideas for a man
cave” – and they nearly all have to do with sports collectibles, sports
memorabilia and autographed sports memorabilia. Game jerseys are high on
the list of most wanted items, with game-worn items always in the
highest demand. The most popular of all game jerseys and other sports
and team memorabilia are those worn by superstars in major games. Their
rarity and significance gives them an added cachet.
Collecting
autographed sports memorabilia and movie memorabilia is more than a fun
hobby. It can add a distinctive touch to your home décor and, if you choose carefully, make you a little extra cash if and when you decide to sell your collection.
