Thomas Kinkade Collectibles
Being an artist is something of a morbid pursuit, as your works will generally only be considered money-spinning investments when you die. That being said, there was one painter called Thomas Kinkade, also known as the “Painter of Light”, who worked so incredibly hard at pumping his paintings out that by the time of his death, art collectors were well sated. He died in 2012, when almost 5% of homes within the United States were in possession of at least one of his works, as provided by The Guardian.

Hess Trucks
The idea of being a trucker is a romantic novelty for many people that avidly collect model trucks. As for the 1960s’ most notable additions to the industry, Hess trucks were widely purchased and enjoyed, to the point that so many of them were not preserved in sellable condition. You could, however, earn about $2,500 if you managed to get your hands on one of the original models from 1964, according to Antiques Almanac. The more rickety models will be bought for almost $40.
