　　Collectibles

　　Collectibles have been a part of almost every culture since ancient times. Whereas some objects have been collected for their usefulness, others have been selected for their aesthetic beauty alone. In the United States, the kinds of collectibles currently popular range from traditional objects such as stamps, coins, rare books, and art to more

　　recent items of interest like dolls, bottles, baseball cards, and comic books.

　　Interest in collectibles has increased enormously during the past decade, in part because some collectibles have demonstrated their value as investments. Especially during cycles of high inflation, investors try to purchase tangibles that will at least retain their current market values. In general, the most traditional collectibles will be sought because they have preserved their value over the years, there is an organized auction market for them, and they are most easily sold in the event that cash is needed. Some examples of the most stable collectibles are old masters, Chinese ceramics, stamps, coins, rare books, antique jewelry, silver, porcelain, art by well-known artists, autographs, and period furniture. Other items of more recent interest include old photograph records, old magazines, post cards, baseball cards, art glass, dolls, classic cars, old bottles, and comic books. These relatively new kinds of collectibles may actually appreciate faster as short-term investments, but may not hold their value as long-term investments. Once a collectible has had its initial play, it appreciates at a fairly steady rate, supported by an increasing number of enthusiastic collectors competing for the limited supply of collectibles that become increasingly more difficult to locate.

　　全文翻譯：收藏品

　　從古代開(kāi)始，收藏品就是文化的一部分。 一些物品因它們的有用性被收藏，而另一些 則純粹因為它們的美被收藏。

　　在美國，當今流行的收藏品種類(lèi)從傳統物件，如郵票、硬幣、 珍本書(shū)籍、藝術(shù)品，到更近期一些的有趣的東西，如布娃娃、瓶子、壘球卡、連環(huán)漫畫(huà)冊。

　　對收藏品的興趣在過(guò)去十年中大大地增長(cháng)，部分原因是一些收藏品顯示出了它們的投資價(jià) 值。 尤其在高通貨膨脹時(shí)期，投資者盡量購買(mǎi)那些至少會(huì )保持他們現有市場(chǎng)價(jià)值的有形資 產(chǎn)。 一般來(lái)說(shuō)，最傳統的收藏品受青睞，因為它們多年后仍保持其價(jià)值。

　　它們擁有完善的 拍賣(mài)市場(chǎng)，在需要現金的時(shí)候最容易被賣(mài)掉。 一些最穩當的收藏品是古老的畫(huà)作、中國陶 器、郵票、硬幣、珍本書(shū)籍、古代珠寶、銀器、瓷器、著(zhù)名藝術(shù)家的作品、親筆簽名和有時(shí) 代特征的家具。 其它更近期的物品有舊唱片、舊雜志、明信片、壘球卡片、彩色玻璃、布 娃娃、早期汽車(chē)、古瓶和連環(huán)畫(huà)冊。 作為短期投資這些相對說(shuō)來(lái)較新穎的收藏品的確可能 更快地增值，但作為長(cháng)期投資則可能不能保值。 一旦一件收藏品有了它第一次交易，它便 以一個(gè)相當穩定的比率增值，這個(gè)增值率受到越來(lái)越多的熱情的收藏者的支持，他們?yōu)橛邢?的而且越來(lái)越難找到的收藏品而競爭。
