Rotary phones
Most likely, your children or grandchildren have never seen, much less used, a rotary phone. They are useless now, anyways. But are they really? Before you declutter and toss your rotary phone away, search the internet for its value.
Believe it or not, working phones in bold colors like orange, pink, mint green and blue are hot commodities for collectors. On eBay, for instance, someone recently sold a dark blue rotary desk phone for $180. I’d say the seller got much more than the item’s worth!
Old yearbooks
Do you have an old high school or college yearbook gathering dust somewhere in your house? Well, you can hit the jackpot if it has names or signatures of famous people. Celebrity memorabilia collectors are willing to pay big bucks for these memory capsules with vintage photos of international celebrities.
“Completist fans are what drive the collectible annual market,” explains Fernand Chagnon of F.I. Chagnon Books in Chula Vista, California, “A yearbook is something special in that not everyone can get their hands on one, making them a valuable edition for any collection.” Their prices can vary from $20 for a not-so-special yearbook to $200 for older yearbooks, such as a 1953 high school yearbook with Sandy Koufax’s senior photo which was sold for $230 on eBay.
