There are rumors that valuable things are left behind in abandoned places. But is this really true? If the place is really abandoned, how much can you find? In this article, we’ll discuss what you can look for, including coins, ephemera, books, and Mayan artifacts. After all, who would want to spend time cleaning out abandoned buildings? What’s so important about these items?
Ephemera
What are some of the things that are often left behind in abandoned places that end up being valuable? The answer is ephemera. In the world of ephemera, items from the past are valuable because they were intended to be used only briefly and discarded. Those that survive tell us things we might not otherwise know. For example, the New York Times recently reported that NASA was unable to retrieve original tapes of Mankind’s first landing on the moon, which it had originally planned to preserve and treasure forever.
In 1980, the Ephemera Society of America was founded. This organization is comprised of collectors and dealers who share a common interest in ephemera. Members of the society can view each other’s collections, and can access a directory of other members. Members of the society can also read the Ephemera News, a journal that is particularly valuable for research libraries.
Collectors of ephemera may be amazed by the prices at which they find it. From pickers at the bottom of the food chain to sophisticated dealers, ephemera can be found almost anywhere. As it rises the food chain, it becomes more expensive. And the more valuable it is, the more money it earns its owners. For this reason, ephemera collectors have the opportunity to make an exceptional profit on every single piece of ephemera.
