I personally started in the hobby of political memorabilia over 30 years ago and Presidential Collectibles was established on eBay in 1998. Over these 30 plus years I have gained a wealth of knowledge both from my personal experiences and the invaluable information shared with me by a very small group of fellow Political collectors and White House staff some of which were collecting Presidential and White House memorabilia 40 years before I purchased my first pair of Presidential cufflinks. You can rest assured that all the items we sell have been carefully inspected and researched every item we sell is 100% authentic. The safest way to protect yourself from replicas is to know your seller we invite you to review the thousands of positive feedback ratings we have received since 1998
