Limited editions, special editions and variants of these terms fall under the category manufactured collectables. These are used as marketing incentives for different types of products. These were originally intended for arts products, such as books and prints. But they are now being used for cars and fine wine. Extra material is often included in special editions. Although limited editions are usually smaller in number, the production may be quite high.
Collectables have been used by retailers and manufacturers in a variety ways to increase sales. The licensing of collectables is one way. This includes licensed collectables, which are based on intellectual properties like images, logos, and characters from literature, music and television. Advertising, brandname and collectibles are just a few examples of licensing. You can also use collectables in retail as prizes. These are items of nominal value that come with or are included in the retail price of the product. Premiums are items that can be "purchased" with coupons, boxtops or proofs of purchase. A small fee is charged to cover shipping and handling. In the form of souvenirs, collectables also play an important part in tourism. Memorabilia is another important collection that is big business. It includes items related to individuals, organizations, events, or media. With the phenomenal rise in use of Non Fungible Tokens, which can be used to sell digital collectibles, collectibles have become a major market worldwide. The global collectibles market is expected to reach $372 billion by 2020 (CollectiblesMarket Report). This market has huge potential, with a Total Attached Market (TAM), estimated at $440 Billion in 2020. Actors and musicians will have a new source of income with digital collectibles. NFT will become a more sophisticated and widely-used market.
Eureka Springs is a city in Carroll County, Arkansas, United States, and one of two county seats for the county.[2] It is located in the Ozark Mountains of northwest Arkansas, near the border with Missouri. As of the 2020 census, the city population was 2,166.[3]
The entire city is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Eureka Springs Historic District. Eureka Springs has been selected as one of America's Distinctive Destinations by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Eureka Springs was originally called "The Magic City", "Little Switzerland of the Ozarks", and later the "Stairstep Town" because of its mountainous terrain and the winding, up-and-down paths of its streets and walkways.
It is a tourist destination for its unique character as a Victorian resort, which first attracted visitors to use its then believed healing springs. The city has steep winding streets filled with Victorian-style cottages and manors. The historic commercial downtown of the city has an extensive streetscape of well-preserved Victorian buildings. The buildings are primarily constructed of local stone, built along limestone streets that curve around the hills, and rise and fall with the topography in a five-mile long loop. Some buildings have street-level entrances on more than one floor and other such oddities: the Basin Park Hotel has its front entrances on the floor below first, and a ground-level emergency exit in the back of the building on the fifth floor. The streets wind around the town, with few intersecting at right angles. There are no traffic lights.

Collectables made into investments
Collectables are limited-supply items that are desired for their potential value increase. A collectable can be seen as an inflation hedge in a financial sense. As they become rarer due to damage, loss, or destruction, their value may increase over time. The main drawback to investing with collectables is the possible lack of liquidity, particularly in cases where they are very obscure. Fraud is also possible.
The 1960s through early 1990s were key years in the production of modern collectables. Although some people purchased collectables for their own enjoyment and personal use, others bought them as investments. Many of these pieces became popular investments, leading to speculative markets. Duplicates are common as many people buy duplicates for investment. Many collectibles were marked as "limited editions" but the actual number produced was huge. This means that there is not much demand for many, but not all, of these items, and their market prices are often low.
Digital collecting can be done on the blockchain. It was made popular by the NFT craze that took place at the end 2020. NFTs are digital items that can be bought, traded, and exchanged by collectors. These items often have images or artworks as part of them. Although these items can be purchased using cryptocurrency, many marketplaces allow you to also purchase NFTs with standard credit cards. The same as physical collecting items can hold value for a variety of reasons. However, these items are not necessarily valuable, rare or uncommon, nor are they necessarily attractive to the eye. Digital collectibles first emerged with the Curio Card, Rare Pepe, and CryptoPunks. Digital art can also be collected digitally.
It is not only human that the urge to collect strange and beautiful objects is strong, but also other animals (bowerbirds, pack rats).
The Renaissance Cabinet of Curiosities was both an antecedent of modern museums as well as modern collecting.
As incentives, early manufactured collectables included cigarette cards in cigarettes packs. Popular products developed secondary markets and often became the subject for "collectable crazes". Many collectibles began to be sold as separate items, rather than being used in marketing to increase sales for other products.
Manufacturers will often produce a whole series of a particular collectable to encourage collecting. Some examples include Beanie Babies cards featuring individual players and sports cards. Enthusiasts may attempt to gather all of the available variants.
Collector editions can be another way to support collectables. Collector editions are rare and often contain extra content that could be of value to collectors. This practice is most commonly used in video games.
Even though the product was initially produced in smaller quantities, premiums can be high on the secondary market for older versions. Toys made during the childhood of an adult collector can fetch such high premiums. Collectors rarely make a remarkable investment, unless they are extremely rare or one-of-a kind.
