Sports Memorabilia -> Autographs: Original -> Football-NFL
Collecting football memorabilia is a passion for thousands of people and whether you are a huge fan of the sport, or you admire certain athletes, there are many different items that are considered to be highly collectible. It’s easy to enhance your personal collection with many different football memorabilia items and it’s also a lot of fun to see just how many you can find. Here are some of the best and most valuable kinds of football memorabilia.
1. Jerseys
Finding an autographed jersey from your favorite player is a great event and for many, this is the ultimate of fandom. If you’re trying to find an autographed piece of football memorabilia, this is quite possibly one of the best forms to go with. Demand is quite high for many players, but you never know what you may come across. You can start with players that you’re already familiar with, and then move onto collect the rest of the jerseys from other popular members of the team. It’s also a good idea to keep an eye out for any rare autographed jersey since they are very valuable.
2. Game Balls
Out of all of the types of football memorabilia you can find, autographed game balls may just be the best. You can find specific game balls that are from very important events like the super bowl, or you can go a little deeper and get one from a player that you enjoy following or from a specific game that meant a lot to you. These items can be very expensive, especially if they were used in a super bowl, pro bowl or any other game of national or historic note.
3. Helmets
These are a great piece of football memorabilia that are not only fun to display, but they may also be quite valuable. Replicas are very common however and will usually have a much lower price tag than originals. All collectors dream of being the one to score an autographed helmet from their favorite player, but this is no easy task if you’re looking for an original. You can usually find these rare items at auction, or players may even sell them directly or through their fan clubs.
4. Ticket Stubs
These may not be necessarily of great monetary value, but as football memorabilia goes, they can have a high emotional value. Consider looking for an autographed ticket stub from one of your favorite players from a game in your area, or even from the super bowl. The bigger the game was, the better your chances are of landing a great collector’s item.
Keep your eye out for new football memorabilia as the new season kicks off. There are a lot of great teams this year and many old favorite players are now back in the game. This promises to be a great year for football memorabilia collectors and you should be able to find plenty of these items in stores and at online auctions this year.
