Collectibles have been a part of almost every culture since ancient times.Whereas some objects have been collected for their usefulness, others have beenselected for their aesthetic beauty alone. In the United States, the kinds ofcollectibles currently popular range from traditional objects such as stamps,coins, rare books, and art to more recent items of interest like dolls, bottles,baseball cards, and comic books.

Interest in collectibles has increased enormously during the past decade,in part because some collectibles have demonstrated their value as investments.Especially during cycles of high inflation, investors try to purchase tangiblesthat will at least retain their current market values. In general, the mosttraditional collectibles will be sought because they have preserved their valueover the years, there is an organized auction market for them, and they are mosteasily sold in the event that cash is needed. Some examples of the most stablecollectibles are old masters, Chinese ceramics, stamps, coins, rare books,antique jewelry, silver, porcelain, art by well-known artists, autographs, andperiod furniture. Other items of more recent interest include old photographrecords, old magazines, post cards, baseball cards, art glass, dolls, classiccars, old bottles, and comic books. These relatively new kinds of collectiblesmay actually appreciate faster as short-term investments, but may not hold theirvalue as long-term investments. Once a collectible has had its initial play, itappreciates at a fairly steady rate, supported by an increasing number ofenthusiastic collectors competing for the limited supply of collectibles thatbecome increasingly more difficult to locate.重庆托福考试时间
