Many sports memorabilia enthusiasts collect as hobby or just for the love of the sport or athlete that they collect. Some sports memorabilia collectors while they may exhibit the same passion as the aforementioned collectors, take it a step further. Not just collecting for the sake of collecting, but choose carefully the sports memorabilia they acquire as a sound investment that will increase in value year after year.
What's the difference? Let me explain.
While a Mariano Rivera autographed photograph is a great piece of sports memorabilia and will never depreciate in value, is quite plentiful and available freely on the open market. A Mariano Rivera Signed Danbury Mint Figurine is a much rarer, thus more valuable piece of sports memorabilia that will increase greatly in value over time.
By acquiring unique, rare, or vintage sports memorabilia not only do you make a sound investment for the future, but you acquire pieces that are sure to be the topic of conversation and the envy of your friends. You will find that it is much more fun to collect the type of sports memorabilia that others do not have, while at the same time investing in your future.
Make a statement while making an investment.
The sports memorabilia you collect makes a statement about you as a collector. Every sports collectible you have acquired over time tells a story and signifies an important moment in sports history. That being said, the more significant the item being signed the greater the return. For example: A Robinson Cano SIGNED Game Used Batting Glove w/ 2005 Inscription. Is a great sports collectible and a great investment for several reasons. First off it is an autographed game used item which in itself makes it very valuable. Then you factor in that he added the "2005" inscription which was his rookie year then the value jumps once again. Let's say he wins a batting title or several, well your investment just grew once again. With the talent that Robinson Cano has exhibited so far in his 1st two seasons with the Yankees it is reasonable to say that he has a great career ahead of him. If he makes the Hall of Fame, well then your investment will have yielded more than a mutual fund.
So you see, collecting sports memorabilia is not only a fun hobby to have but a wise investment decision as well.
