There has been several posts on what people like to collect. However, I have yet to see any post on why you want to collect. So my question is why do people want to collect things? Is it for pure enjoyment or are you collecting so that whatever you collect may appreciate in value and you'll sell it at a later time for a profit. ^_^'
I like to collect Japanese anime posters the older the better. Today's Japanese anime posters are largely done on CG and it does not look as good. The older anime posters are drawn by hand and some of them are quite good to look as an art. I enjoy collecting posters because I never know what I will stumble across during my search. Japanese tend to throw away their posters once the movie or series are over and very few goes outside of Japan to another country but if you're fortunate enough to live in an area where anime is popular and if you enjoy the thrill of hunt then you will find a rare and old Japanese anime posters. Of course, some posters are quite pricy. What posters I have I bought to keep for my enjoyment. ^_^'
