Yeah, I'm sure Tom Brady will be one to collect as well.

I thought this was an interesting article on athletes you should avoid when investing in Sports Collectibles: Investing in Sports Collectibles: The Athletes to Avoid | Upper Deck Blog

Who else do...

I learn something new every day on these forums. Wow.

This is great, thanks for posting! I have several items that I would love to have valued and will post this week.

Thanks Worthpoint.

Let's hear it, who here collects vinyl records? If so, what's your most prized possession?

Sometimes when collecting Militaria, items can have a sentimental value for obvious reasons. Do you have a most prized or memorable Militaria in your collection? What is the story behind it?

That's just insane! I mean people can use their money for whatever they want, but $2 Million for a ring seems excessive to me. I guess some people just want to be seen.

I'm kind of boring and like old records. One time on a family vacation in Michigan, I stumbled into an antique shop with hundreds of classic jazz albums from the 50's and 60's and the guy was selling...

I really enjoyed reading the Outsiders, Catch22, the Great Gatsby and Moby Dick. I really need to get back to reading some of the classics, they are so great and timeless.

That's really interesting Douglas, I had no idea of the term "scrimshaw". Do you have any example pictures of scrimshaw artwork?

A little out of my price range (or a lot!) but I'm sure there will be some beautiful things up for auction that weekend.

Talk about re-purposing! I love stories like this where people take ordinary materials or what others consider garbage and create something useful or beautiful.

Yeah, I can't wait either. It will be great to have a forum all our own to talk shop!

I was not aware of that, but thanks for the post Maggie. not that I would ever stumble upon a Moon rock anytime soon!

I'm not interested in the collection but it would be interesting to see some of the eclectic buttons that you now have.

A recent article from Worthpoint reports a Julius Goldman back bar bottle, soared to $25,200 to claim top lot honors in an Internet and catalog sale hosted by American Bottle Auctions.
