vintage paper items are highly collectible anyway I suppose due to its delicate and fragile nature... paper drives back in the day destroy3d so much and humidity, storms, fires make these kind of items scarce... baseball cards, movie one sheets, music sheets, letterhead, vintage stationary.... its all collectible mostly for what kind of art is on it, topic or theme of the item.... I collect vintage pinup girl calendars and magazine pullout posters... which has a nice correlation to world war II and nose art and the pinups hanging up in barracks... and its all frameable... my ex wife collects vintage sheet music and it looks amazing framed and up on the wall because of the artwork on the cover page. so pick something you find interesting or are a fan of... Star Wars, girls, travel themed items... USAAF ... maps is a good one for some.. in fact, being on the coast people here like to collect nautical navigation maps and some artists hand paint fish such as Blue Marlins and blue crabs on them... There are some really great WWII posters out there and the reproduction market shows that many are still interested in this kind of artwork but its more affordable to have a reproduction. One of my most highly prized paper items are a few original Star Wars movie poster one sheets and an original Raiders of the Lost Ark movie one sheet. loved those films so the posters are "fine art" to me! LOL!Thanks Ed!
I didn’t have a clue that these things were such sought after items. I appreciate you taking the time to educate me on this area of collectibles .
Cheers
