How to Collect Sports Memorabilia By : Bonnie Browne
Many people who are passionate about their interests love to collect items around these interests and show them off to their friends. Some people like to collect plates, spoons, salt and pepper shakers, pictures or autographs. Anything can be collectible as long as it is something you appreciate and enjoy.

Sports fans like to collect any and all things pertaining to their favorite sport especially if it is authentic memorabilia.

Sports collectibles are a very huge market and many sports fans are willing to pay any amount of money to get their little piece of history. I am thinking of world series winning baseballs, hit out of the park, caught and sold for big prices on ebay.

Memorabilia does not have to necessarily be a big cost item. Some people save ticket stubs from events they have attended, Some collect game day programs. Some may be lucky enough to catch a ball hit out the stands at an ordinary baseball game and some are even able to purchase articles of clothing worn by an athlete during a particular game or practice. If they are lucky enough, sometimes these fans are able to get the player's autograph.

You can also add to your collection by purchasing collectibles through stores, There are lots of places on the internet that you can find this specialty memorabilia. You can buy something that may be authentic or may not be.. Some collectibles can be very expensive especially if the item is in short supply or the athlete was, or is larger, than life - for example Muhammed Ali.

If you are going to invest a large sum of money in your memorabilia then you want to make really sure that you are doing business with an honest and reputable store. Some firms have contracts with the athletes or their agents and deal directly with them when obtaining autographs, photographs and items of interest. They can attest that these items are 100% authentic. If they don't deal directly with the athletes themselves then they should purchase items only from officially licenced dealers. The merchant also should provide a certificate of authenticity and/or a hologram when he sells it to you..

Whether you wish to spend a little or a lot, collecting sports memorabilia, be it in the area of boxing, baseball, hockey or other, can be a fun and sometimes profitable thing to do. You have something that you can hold in your hand or see with your eye to help you relive those pleasant memories again and again.
