1989年,著名的克里斯蒂拍卖行在苏格兰格拉斯哥举行了一个专门关于足球纪念品的拍卖会,这是全球主流拍卖行第一次做出这样的尝试。这次拍卖会的成交金额总共为4.5179万英镑。随着足球热在社会各个阶层的散播,足球用品逐渐在拍卖这个“一锤子的买卖”中体现出更高的价值。索斯比、菲利普斯等世界知名拍卖行和互联网上最大的拍卖网站(Ebay)也纷纷介入这一新兴的行当。 In 1989, the famous Christie’s auction house held an auction in Glasgow, Scotland, dedicated to soccer memorabilia, the first such attempt by major global auction houses. The auction turnover amounted to 4517900 pounds. With the spread of football heat at all levels of society, football supplies gradually show higher value in auctioning this “one-shot deal.” Sotheby’s, Phillips and other world-renowned auction house and the Internet’s largest auction site (Ebay) have also been involved in this emerging business.
