Why Collect?

Collecting political items is an enriching endeavor that provides a window into the rich tapestry of political history. By collecting these items, individuals contribute to the preservation of historical legacy and ensure that the stories and lessons they hold are passed on to future generations.

APIC Member Benefits

While the collecting aspect of the hobby is important to most members, and the education that members receive is invaluable and never-ending, the biggest benefit the APIC provides is the friendship and fellowship that develops between members.
