Following the historic news that Prince William and Kate Middleton are to get married on April 29th 2011 at Westminster Abbey a hoard of Royal wedding souvenirs and memorabilia goes into production. If you're a patriotic royal watcher, or simply on the lookout for an investment opportunity, now is the time to start researching everything connected to William and Kate.
Mugs, cups and plates have always been a favourite collectible item during the build up to any special Royal event. There will certainly be a wide variety of all types of china with both Prince William and Princess Catherine's faces on them, along with the royal crests or perhaps Westminster Abbey in the background. These become collector's pieces and look very nice arranged along a shelf or in a cabinet.
Fine bone china with hand painted decorative occasions of the wedding is a good recommended choice to purchase, as these can carry their own value, even without the imprinted commemorative photos.
Royal thimbles will be on offer printed with photos of the happy couple. Royal commemorative thimbles date back well over a century and have long been an item of collectible value. Look out for thimbles that have been produced using an embossed method on precious metals such as gold, silver, or even platinum. Collecting these will be much higher in value, along with the commemorative element.
Start collecting any type of reading material on the newly weds to be. Magazines, books, pamphlets, newspaper articles, anything concerning William and Kate's historic journey. Kept together as a theme collection in immaculate condition, a full collection of printed reading material and photographs surrounding their engagement, wedding, and any other informative articles as a married couple, will always attract the attention of collectors looking for royal memorabilia.
Stamps are also another firm favourite collectible item. Not just from the UK, but from across the world. Nearly all Commonwealth countries will issue commemorative issue stamps, so get on to the postal websites to see what is available to buy.
If you are already a collector of stamps, why not create a royal theme collection. Build up a nice collection that covers the engagement period, the wedding, birth of any children, and so on. Themes like this are more likely to add value over time, especially if kept in folders and good condition.
Collect coins - Buy Commemorative coins with details of Prince William and Kate Middleton's engagement or wedding featured on them. These embossed coins will also carry the all-important dates of the events and can become a valuable investment as time goes on, especially if they are a limited edition. Search the Internet to find Royal coins concerning William and Kate's 2011 wedding and snap them up now, especially if only a certain amount is being produced.
You might also want to start a collection of Royal Wedding t-shirts. You could purchase licensed ones from your local stores or off the many Internet websites selling William and Kate merchandise. The royal couple on a T-shirt is probably not to everyone's taste, but still none the less a collectible souvenir, that in years to come to could add value to your unique vintage collection.
This will give you some idea as to what to look out for now and in the coming month's as anticipation grows towards the Royal Wedding. It is very much a personal choice for any collector but I would suggest if you want to buy an item that will give you long term value, steer clear of any tacky items that will flood the market in their thousands. That's not to say it is wrong if you just want to show your support by buying a mug or T-shirt that takes your fancy, but if you want to be a serious collector of Royal memorabilia, only purchase either good quality products or build up a unique theme collection. And remember to keep your items in the best condition possible by storing them safely, if your purchase is already boxed and packaged, then leave it like that.
