Welcome to Rare Antiques Collectibles and Memorabilia.
Does this seem familiar to you? Grateful dead albums, tie dye t-shirts, macrame belts, puka beads, Peter, Paul and Mary's puff the magic dragon and Carole King's "tapestry" album.
Yes they are all a part of the sixties. I'm talking about about collecting anything and everything in a specific era or period in history. It might be the 40's,50's,60's or the swinging 20's or let's say the edwardian era.
If you want to build up a collection that will really keep u busy and immerse in a particular period in history try delving into period collecting.
There are many ways to go about this. one, go to a newspaper library and get access to their stack of microfilms. Scroll down headlines and any specific items of note in a particular decade like style and fashion, music, films, the bestseller book of the day or any specific events like the mods versus rockers clashes in the sixties.
When it comes to music, sheet music and records are both collectable items.. They must be of course, tunes that were popular in that period of time. How about maintenance manuals for cars introduced at that time. The picture above shows the mod fashion in the sixties...take note of the mini-skirt.
You can probably think of many more collectibles just as long you remain to select your favorite period.
