Customer Review: Book: Cubs Forever
Cubs Forever: Memories from the Men Who Lived Them I bought this book for my sister as a birthday present and she "loved it". Our family has been Cubs fans forever. This book was even more than I expected because of its size and beautiful pictures. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone, especially Cubs fans...they are the greatest fans on earth.
Customer Review: Every Cub's Fan needs to own this gem.
Everybody who is now or has ever been a Chicago Cub's fan needs to own this book, which comes with a great video of exciting moments in Cub's history. The stories and photos are priceless. A special tribute to WGN Chicago for their T.V. coverage of Cub's Baseball for the last 60 years.

Autographed sports memorabilia collecting either vintage or modern, comes down to a few factors which are amount of money available and amount of space available.

The preference of a collector may be Baseball Collectible Memorabilia, Basketball Memorabilia, Football Memorabilia, Golf Memorabilia, or NASCAR memorabilia. No matter what sport you follow, the hunt of a desired piece from a particular athlete to ad to a collection is a challenge that is like no other.

Sports Memorabilia Collecting depends on the individual and it may deal with almost anything sports. Some Sports collectors choose to focus on a specific topic in their area of interest - example Baseball memorabilia of the Boston Red Sox, Football Collectible memorabilia of the 49ers, or anything Tiger Woods. Others Sports Memorabilia Collectors prefer a more general approach, obtaining any or all Baseball collectibles, Football memorabilia, Golf memorabilia, NASCAR collectibles or NBA Basketball memorabilia.

Sports Collectibles can take the form of a single item such as an autographed football or baseball. Memorabilia can also be a series of items, such as signature from each member of a baseball, basketball, or football team. Signed football programs from each New Year.

The value of a sports collectible memorabilia item is dependant upon the popularity of the sports athlete and how rare the signature is to get. The harder the item is to get the more demand the item which in return the higher the value. Example of this is an athlete that only honors a given number of autographs do to contracts and other factors keeping items high in cost and value.
