CIB's Collectors Choice Award Winners

By , About.com Guide

The Collectors' Iinformation Bureau, a trade organization of collectible manufacturers, polled collectors to find their favorites in several different categories of outstanding collectibles.

The public determined the winners, who were notified and announced at the July 2007 Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishing Market.

Background:
Companies were invited to submit products, these entries were then submitted to a judging panel to pick the best in each particular category. The entries were judged on

  • excellence in concept
  • design and execution
  • value represented by price and quality
  • quality of materials and workmanship
  • overall aesthetic appeal
The products were also required to be new for 2006. These final picks were then submitted to the public who voted for their favorites.
