I like that old pin up.

I collect old pin ups, especially calander, sketchpad fishing/hunting related.

What is the value of something like this? I've seen a few of these at auctions and can't think they've gone for much at all. Most I attend are in small rural areas and collectibles are pretty cheap sometimes if a guy knows what he's looking for...which is what I'm trying to learn.

If you know a subject, feel free to share things that make those items valuable and maybe things to look for that reduce value.

Condition of course is the hallmark for pin-up art. Also if its a calendar or sketch pad, is it complete with all the months?
A simple tear out like the one above is worth perhaps $5-10. It also depends on the artist. Like Varga stuff, which I don't care for, goes for some pretty big cash, especially is the subject is someone famous..like Monroe.
One thing I can tell you is if you come across full 1950-1959 full pin-up calendars cheap, Buy Them.
Also if you find pin up calendars with Cellophane Lifts..you know lift the sheet and the boobies are revealed those are very collectable.
