Ticket collecting has become even more interesting. With the accesability of information on the internet, collectors can actually research who played and what happened at the event depicted on their ticket.
With more elaborate tickets with team logos, player and celebrity photos, collectors can make decorate and themed displays.
Vintage tickets (like above) are coveted with the accompanying data: The 1967 game pitted the boston Red Sox against the New York Yankees. It was a great game for the season's triple crown winner Carl Yastrzemski. Mickey Mantle played for NY.
World Cup, Super Bowl and World Series tickets are highly desired.
While newer tickets feature holograms and watermarks, older tickets need closer examination. With some rarer specimens reaching $500-$1000, fakes are sure to follow.
1950 FIFA World Cup ticket (above), last sold for $800 at auction.
The best part for many collectors are the memories they can embrace with these keepsakes - now more vivid and interesting.
Hi Vicki ! I'll be glad to help if I can. Hopefully, we can accomplish a few things:
1. separate genuine items from fakes or counterfiet ones.
2. identifying and catagorizing sports collectables.
3. what to look for in finding sports memorabilia.
Happy collecting :)
Hey Chuck! Happy to see we have a moderator for this group now! Great to know when I run across sports collectibles in the estate sale business - I'm pretty awful at them! :)
A rare, out of print issue - Pittsburgh Sports Hall of Fame - published in 1969. Interestingly, only a short time later the "Steel City" would be champions in both baseball (1972) and football (1974-76). Since this was printed by the locally owned printing company (and the illustrator of the book) Marty Wolfson, its run was limited.
