Antique map collecting is a hobby very popular. It is an ideal choice for those interested in geography and cartography, history, art, politics … The good news is that you do not need much money to begin.
What do you collect? The best idea is to collect something you love. Antique map collectors usually focus on either "vertical" or "horizontal" type of collection. "Vertical" means that you can collect maps from one country or region of the world, and monitor the development of that country or region throughout history. "Horizontal" means that you concentrate on one period or the work of a single cartographer.
Before you decide what types of cards to collect, you must also decide how much money you are able to spend on collecting antique map. So what can you expect to pay for an antique map? There are many cards still available for under $ 150. However, rare antique maps can be very expensive, sometimes reaching five or six digits. Some older cards are generally more valuable. However, maps of the 16th century, can be purchased for less than $ 250, while maps from the 19th century can be worth thousands of dollars. The value of old maps is also affected by supply and demand. Maps of Africa, India, Russia and South America and other less popular, can be very affordable. If you do not want to spend money buying an Original Card, you can buy reproductions of maps expensive and rare antiques.
The best thing a beginner should do is to visit antique map shopping, talking to dealers and see the wide range of maps available. Also, there map dedicated exhibitions and book fairs where Old Antique map dealers are represented. Old maps are sold in two forms – bound in a book or an atlas, or a separate sheet.
