Collecting has come a long way from the days when stamps and coins were the primary treasures. And while these remain beloved by many, today's collectors have expanded their horizons to include a variety of contemporary and future classics.
Whether childhood toys left behind or forgotten boxes in the attic, there's a growing market for diverse collectibles - both vintage and modern.
Stockport-based auction house Maxwells is witnessing this first hand, with a noticeable uptick in the number and value of collectibles being sold at its monthly auctions.
Some of the more popular categories are: Warhammer miniatures: These tabletop game pieces are highly collectable, with vintage sets fetching impressive prices. Original Star Wars memorabilia: Items from the original trilogy, especially figures, are in high demand. Classic gaming consoles and games: Original Nintendo systems and games continue to captivate enthusiasts. Comic books: Early editions and runs of DC and Marvel comics, particularly those featuring iconic characters, are prized possessions. 1960s/70s Rock LPs: Vinyl records from this era remain highly collectable. Wines and spirits: Rare bottles of wine and whisky can often command significant sums. Die-cast vehicles: Brands like Dinky Toys have a dedicated following.
