Survey Shows Space Collectibles Are Popular

A recent survey taken every year by the Asheford Institute of Antiques showed that space-related collectibles are the most wanted things on a list of 14, probably because various moon landings, rocket launchings and sales of items related to space exploration get so much publicity. Space exploration has been a fascinating subject since Buck Rogers and other famous characters appeared in comic strips, TV shows and movies. Also not surprising was the interest in “midcentury modern,” the favored decorating style for young people.
