Thus far, most museums have yet to add memorabilia to their public collections, although many have on occasion had specialty shows featuring a private individual's collection. This means there is a tremendous number of items still in private hands. With the internet offering a worldwide trading platform, there are unfortunately many fakes in circulation and it is essential to be informed before a memorabilia acquisition. If you'd like to get a Pop & Film Memorabilia valuation from our online specialist, simply upload a photograph and tell us any other details you know about the item.
