In the past, a series of events have taken place that take a collectable or group of collectables into a high value category. As a result, prices increase for the series and/or one item in the series.
These are the prized objects referred to as collector’s items. These items are rare, discontinued or in such short supply that a set cannot be considered complete until the last piece is in place. The age of the collection or piece is not always the criteria for demanding substantial amounts of money for an item.
Below is a partial list of this type of collectible. This list will grow over time, as we at Future Antique are reminded of these ‘favorites’.
