An introduction to collecting sports memorabilia: what to collect and how to start

9.11.2026

Collecting sports memorabilia connects fans all over the world. Every postcard, ticket or badge is a small piece of sporting history.

You can collect almost anything: vintage stadium postcards, tickets and match programmes, badges, pennants, cards, photographs, autographs, pucks and sports equipment. It is best to start with a theme you enjoy – a favourite sport, club, athlete or a specific event such as the Olympic Games or a World Cup. A budget set in advance also helps, as prices range from a few euros to rare pieces for serious collectors.

The ice hockey puck: history of a small disc and tips for collectors

9.11.2026

The small disc of vulcanised rubber has belonged to hockey since its beginnings – and for collectors it is one of the most accessible and personal souvenirs.

In hockey's early days, players used all sorts of objects – wooden blocks, balls and improvised discs. The game played on 3 March 1875 at the indoor Victoria Skating Rink in Montreal is regarded as the birth of modern hockey; a flat disc was used instead of a ball so it would not fly into the crowd. Pucks have been made of vulcanised rubber since around the turn of the 20th century, and their shape and size have changed little since.
