Non-Sports stuff can be cool too
Posted by Chris

wizardofoz.JPGI usually don’t touch on non-sports memorabilia too much, but on eBay lately I have seen some awesome non-sports pieces, particularly ticket stubs from historic events.

Check out these two eBay listings that just sold. HERE and HERE.

I love tickets because it puts the collector at the event. Imagine attending the 1939 premier of “The Wizard of Oz” in Hollywood or being read to by one of the greatest authors in history. I wish I would’ve seen these pieces before they sold, because I would actually love to own these ticket stubs, and I don’t usually go after non-sports pieces.

I think one of the coolest stubs to have would be from the Beatles first appearance on the "Ed Sullivan Show." I've never seen one, but I bet it would get $10,000-$20,000.
