------------------ ARTICLE START ------------------

Celebrity collectibles are how many people start to form their own personal collections of memorabilia. These collectibles are a way for people to begin a collection of something which they can treasure and value. Going after these collectibles can be a hobby for a great many people, giving them constructive to do. Collections of something are a great way for many people to feel a sense of pride, for gathering a number of rare, interesting, and even valuable pieces can turn out to be a great hobby for a number of people.

There are certainly different levels of celebrity collectibles, however. The pieces of memorabilia which are in the best condition are considered to be "mint," and as a result, are often worth the most amount of money. Other conditions can range from very good to poor and while any of these pieces can be included to be a part of a great collection, the better a condition that the piece of memorabilia is in, the more money it will ultimately be worth. This means that the more that edges have been bent and frayed, the more scuffed the object is, or the more smudges or stains on the object, the less in value it will ultimately be determined to have.

There are only a limited number of pieces of these different types of memorabilia available in the world and this plays a great deal in determining their worth. Pieces which have been produced with a limited number from the beginning are considered to be incredibly valuable. There is a set number of these celebrity collectibles existing in the world and because of this, one could potentially know who the owners of these pieces are at any given time. Other pieces of celebrity collectibles could just be considered rare for while the number of those pieces existing may not be known for certain, the availability of them is considered to be rare. Sometimes, when it is not known for certain how many pieces exist, the object can be considered to be even more valuable and in the instances when a new object is discovered, it is found with delight.

The more famous that a celebrity is, the more collectibles that person will have. If an actor or a sports star isn't one of the leading people of their time, they will have a smaller amount of collectibles available. This could be a good or a bad thing of the time. If they are lesser known, their collectibles might not be worth much in the end. If, however, they grow to be more respected as the years pass, the fact that so few collectibles of this person were produced could make them even more valuable.

Celebrity collectibles are important because they help to gage the worth of a certain set of memorabilia. If an item sells for a certain amount of money, the market will know how valuable these items are. Additionally, this helps to set the precedent for these items being sold in the future. Celebrity collectibles can help determine the fair market price for any types of collectibles which a person might own.
