Personally, I have never understood why people donate things to museums. 99% of all things donated to museums end up on shelves and boxes, never to be utilized in a display (some of which end up being sold by the museum in the long run so they can purchase "more important items"). I don't know if it is a way for someone to feel like they have contributed something back to society, but it is a total waste of some great items. In my opinion, if you have an original Rembrandt--sure, donate it to a museum, because they will likely display it for everyone to enjoy. If you have a VGEX 1914 Cracker Jack Set, sell it back into the hobby for those that really care about the cards can enjoy them. Don't condemn those beautiful cards to a long slow death in the hands of curators that don't know a thing about them. This is just my opinion, would like hearing what you guys think. |
