We All Collect Something
Everyone collects something or other. Collecting has become its own national mania with everything from records, baseball cards or toys to collect. Baseball cards, toys and LP’s are just a few of the items to collect in this growing obsession. For the devoted fan there are even large conventions to attend.
In San Francisco in 1970, Comic-Con was started and has since branched into other domains, too. Some comics, depending on their rarity and pristine shape, can bring in some large bucks. The most pricey comic book that sold for $1.5 million, was due not only to its being the first appearance of Superman, but it was also the first appearance of a modern super hero. This comic book was a 1938 DC Action Comic #1 written by Jerry Siegel and illustrated by Joe Shuster. Someone, somewhere is displaying this in his or her house or office under harsh security.
In the collector’s arena, another interesting article gathering notoriety are sports jerseys. They have yet to get their own convention but they are at all baseball card conventions in their jersey display cases. A 1950s Mickey Mantle jersey was bought for $141,000 in 2007 and a Michael Jordan Chicago Bulls red game uniform from the 1997-98 Championship is selling for $45,500, but none top that of Babe Ruth’s uniform from 1933 that was bought for $657,250. All displayed for the whole planet to see in souped-up jersey display cases.
Lastly, one of the more peculiar collecting things around, which might seem a bit tough to display are flags. Yes flags. It’s slightly less popular than its cousins coin collecting and stamp collecting, but all flags, from all countries, from all communities and states around the world are valued in accordance with their rarity, age and form. There are flag cases to show these beauties just like with any other hobby. Flag collecting also has its own dictionary like vexillology, meaning the study of flags and a real collector never uses the term ‘pole’; it is always stated as ‘staff’ or ‘flagstaff’. This hobby also has some high rollers in its midst; back in 2009 a Union Jack (Britain’s flag) that was owned by Second Lieutenant James Clephan at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805 was sold for $600,000. This too must be on show in some amazing flag case over someone’s fireplace mantel; what a conversation starter.
So remember to keep all your collectibles clean and safe because you never know how much that baseball card, sports jersey or flag may be worth. In the future, those flag cases, jersey display cases or comic display cases could be worth their weight in gold.
