Abstract
A means and method of providing a novel collectible memorabilia item is disclosed. The present invention involves concealing a memorabilia item that is affixed to a carrier item by the manufacturer thereof. To ensure that the memorabilia item remains hidden, so that they can only be seen by buyers after they have paid for their purchase, the protective devices could optionally be tamper-proofed. Additionally, the means for concealment includes protective devices and/or the optional tamper-proofing devices in addition to components similar to those currently utilized in anti-theft systems. In addition to protecting the memorabilia item and ensuring that it remains with the carrier item, by concealing the memorabilia an element of chance is introduced to the purchasing process. Accordingly, the true value of the carrier item and the memorabilia item attached there to is not revealed until the carrier item is purchased and the protective device is then removed.
