Collectors of memorabilia have always enjoyed displaying the items in their collections, but doing so was always problematic. Nowadays, dealers of celebrity autographs and sports memorabilia are making it easy for their customers to display their acquisitions. The latest trend in collecting celebrity mementoes is turning the memorabilia into artwork suitable for hanging on the walls of a man room or for use as game room decorations. If you’re looking for the ideal piece to finish off your game room or ideas for man cave decorations, look into some of the newest ways to collect and display collectible items.
Framed Photos
Celebrity photos have always been among the most collectible items available. From Marilyn Monroe to Heath Ledger, people love to collect photos of their favorite actors, comedians, sports stars and political figures. Once upon a time, the big Hollywood studios employed people in the PR department whose only job was to respond to fan mail with autographed photographs of the stars. Those days are gone, but people still love photo memorabilia. In fact, candid celebrity photos are even more valued.
If you’re looking for a photo of your favorite movie star for the walls of your media room, don’t take chances. Make your purchase from a dealer who provides the photos framed behind glass and matted with acid-free paper. Why pay for just a photo when you can get a complete display piece, ready to hang on the wall?
Memorabilia Displays
Many people enjoy themed collections – collections of memorabilia that revolve around a particular movie, star, sport or event. Some of the most popular new collectibles are created specifically for use in themed displays. Signed guitars, for example, are extremely popular with collectors of music memorabilia. While you can find autographed guitars for sale on their own, the more valuable items are framed as part of a collection that may include contracts, concert tickets, photos of the musician or musicians who autographed the guitar or other mementoes. The frames are the highest quality, real wood frames, and all materials are acid-free to help preserve the items behind the glass.
Themed Collections
Some collectors fancy very specific collectibles. Celebrity autographs aren’t quite specific enough. Those collectors may set their sights on photos of celebrities, such as Bob Hope, Jackie Gleason, Howard Cosell and Lucille Ball, on the golf course. Others may be looking for framed collections that celebrate a particular achievement – Triple Crown winners, for example, or winners of the Masters tournament.
The most popular memorabilia dealers have taken up the cause of turning mementoes into art by framing some of the most sought-after types of mementoes into framed works of art that will lend a touch of true class to your game room decorations.
