Anyone into collecting airline-branded luggage tags?

Started by BOS330Watcher 3 weeks ago 2 replies 30 views
So, I've been diving into the world of aviation collectibles and stumbled upon airline-branded luggage tags. They're kind of neat, right? I mean, some of the designs are pretty unique and definitely bring a vintage vibe. I've got a few from airlines that don't even exist anymore, like Pan Am and TWA, and each tag tells a little story of its own.

Anyone else collecting these? I'm curious about how you display them or if you've come across any rare finds. I found one from Braniff that I think is from the '60s, and it's got this cool retro look. Also, any tips on where to track down more of these without breaking the bank? eBay seems like the obvious choice, but I'm wondering if there are any hidden gems elsewhere.

Would love to hear your thoughts or see pics if you've got a collection going!
I've got a small collection myself! Mostly from yard sales and flea markets. Those places sometimes have hidden treasures people don't realize are valuable. I totally agree about the vintage vibe. I display mine in a shadow box on the wall. Keeps them safe and shows them off at the same time. Besides eBay, you might want to check out local antique shops. Sometimes they have aviation memorabilia at decent prices. Anyone else notice the sudden price hike on eBay lately?
